What is Match Madness?
Match Madness is a one-day only giving day extravaganza that raises money to provide long-term support for local nonprofits so that they can serve and impact our community now and forever.
You make a donation to one or more local nonprofit permanent endowed funds held at the Community Foundation and the Greater Salina Community Foundation matches it up to 50% with an instant cash grant that the nonprofit can use for immediate needs. It's a win-win!
How Has it Grown?
Since it started in 2012, Match Madness has grown to become Salina's biggest day of giving, raising $4.8M for over 100 local charities. Of that $4.8M, $3.3M is permanently endowed, generating $165,000 annually to support our area nonprofits. This is money that will never go away and is here forever to keep our community healthy and thriving!
