There are tens of thousands of incredible nonprofits and schools on GiveMN.org for you to support! 

From animal rescues to food pantries and environmental conservation to youth programs and beyond, there are multiple impactful causes to support as they work to advance the things you care about most. Consider the following when deciding which organizations to support during GTMD24.

1. Is there an organization you’ve worked with in the past? Or perhaps you, your friends, or your family have benefited from the services they provide. Share your gratitude by making a donation! 
2. What causes are doing work in areas that you feel strongly about, or that match your values? Try filtering your search by category to view organizations by the type of work they do.
3. Is there an organization located near you that you’d like to support? You can also filter your search by location at GiveMN.org/search to view causes near and far! 
4. If you live in the Twin Cities metro, consider expanding your giving to support organizations in areas of Greater Minnesota near and dear to your heart. Research shows that these areas, especially rural communities, receive a disproportionate level of funding and support than urban and suburban areas, and a statewide giving day like Give to the Max is a great time to support organizations that are working to help our rural communities thrive. Use the location and/or keyword search to find causes across the state.
5. Search for and support BIPOC-led, BIPOC-serving, and LGBTQ+ serving organizations. Research shows that organizations led by or serving Black communities, Indigenous communities, or communities of color receive less funding than when compared with nonprofit organizations at large. Additionally, organizations that primarily support LGTBQ+ communities experience measurable disparities in funding. That’s why GiveMN offers search filters for BIPOC-led, BIPOC-serving, and LGBTQ+-serving organizations—to bring awareness to these historically marginalized causes.
