Join Us for Spring Grant Giving Ceremonies!
Throughout the school year, thousands of young people participating in Magnified Giving in over 130 programs and schools have been working hard to make a very important decision. Each of those 130 groups has been entrusted with at least $1,000 to grant to a local nonprofit, and they’ve been researching, visiting, serving, advocating, and collaborating in order to select a worthy recipient. The time has come for us to celebrate the efforts of these young people and give them the opportunity to announce their grant recipients and award much-needed funding to nonprofit representatives!
All are invited to the upcoming “Giving Ceremonies” where youth will share about their chosen organizations and present their grants. During this time, we’ll also hear from teachers and program facilitators about the unique ways they implement the Magnified Giving programs in their schools or agencies.
These Giving Ceremonies are a tremendous opportunity for Magnified Giving supporters to see how your gifts are magnified by these young people and their experiences. We hope you join us to learn from these young people about the causes they care about and the missions they’ve chosen to support! Representatives from each nonprofit recipient will describe how the funding will help support their mission.
How Do I Attend a Giving Ceremony?
We are happy to provide multiple opportunities for you to attend our Giving Ceremonies. To support 130 programs all around Cincinnati and beyond, are hosting 3 in-person Giving Ceremonies and several virtual ceremonies on Zoom.
In-Person Giving Ceremonies
At our in-person Giving Ceremonies, youth from 4-5 programs present their grants to representatives from their selected nonprofits. These ceremonies are full of energy, and we know you’ll be inspired when you witness these youth philanthropists share about their experience and grant funds to local nonprofits. We hope you consider joining us for an in-person Giving Ceremony this year.
