ARVADA, Colo. – Colorado Gives Day, a statewide movement to increase online giving, is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 5.
The event is presented by Community First Foundation, a local community foundation dedicated to fueling positive change in Jefferson County, the Denver metropolitan area and beyond, and FirstBank, Colorado’s second largest bank and one of the most philanthropic companies in the state.
“It’s astounding to think in 2010 we were hoping Colorado Gives Day would raise $1 million for local nonprofits, and last year alone, it raised over $33 million,” said Jim Reuter, CEO of FirstBank. “As a longtime corporate partner, it’s been an honor to witness this statewide movement not only grow exponentially, but strengthen our nonprofit community year after year. We’re optimistic that momentum will continue Dec. 5.”
