#EMERALDCOASTGIVESBACK2016

Description

Emerald Coast Gives Back is a 24-hour day of giving back that will take place from midnight to midnight on Giving Tuesday, November 29, 2016.
The purpose of this community-wide day of giving back is to increase public awareness of the impact local nonprofits make in addressing our community's social challenges, bring nonprofits, donors and volunteers together, expand the idea of online giving, connect people to the causes that mean the most to them and, of course, make giving back fun.
As a community-wide "giving back" experience, together we can make a greater impact for our home, our community, the Emerald Coast.

?Emerald Coast Gives Back is based on other highly successful giving days hosted across the country and is part of Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving back, now in its fifth year. Last year, 700,000 people raised $116,000,000 online in over 70 countries as part of Giving Tuesday 2015.

?Emerald Coast Gives Back is a grassroots movement, started by a collaboration of nonprofit organizations and businesses in the Fort Walton Beach, Florida area
