“It was our biggest Big Give ever,” said CRRC Executive Director Jason Derscheid. “A big piece of that was our board and local volunteers putting together a match challenge.”
Friends of Tye Preston Memorial Library raised over $18,000 during the 24-hour Big Give, placing number six in its budget category.
“We are overwhelmed with the level of support exhibited by our community,” said Susan Bogle, president of the board of the Canyon Lake Community Library District. “People are extraordinarily generous and we truly appreciate their help, which will enable the library to build for the future.”
TPML ranked number 62 on the Big Give leaderboard with 109 donors.
