Youbetcha!

Today, if you live in Minnesota, you've heard of GiveMN.org. It's not just because we're known for leading the nation in charitable giving it's because every non-profit and anyone connected to those organizations is promoting a great way to amplify giving through "Give to the Max." Full disclosure - as our client, we're doing our best to promote GiveMN.org, too.

The goal was to raise as much money as possible in 24 hours. The clock started at 8:00AM today and as of 4:20 nearly $8 Million has been raised by more than 21,000 donors supporting 2,500 non-profits.

So how much is possible? Keep looking at the tally - it's amazing!

The media exposure is great from the Star Tribune, Pioneer Press, MinnPost, Business Journal, WCCO TV, KMSP TV and others.

And it may be trending on Twitter, depending on when you read this....

In the end it's about the difference people make in Minnesota - nice going.
