SANDY, Utah, Nov. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mountain America Credit Union announces the launch of its 2024 GivingTuesday initiative, aimed at providing essential support to nonprofits across its six-state footprint. This year, the initiative will donate a total of $28,000 to various nonprofits.
Voting for the initiative began on Nov. 4 and will continue through Nov. 22, giving the community a chance to actively participate in deciding which local nonprofits will receive the donations. Both Mountain America members and nonmembers are encouraged to vote for their preferred nonprofit by scanning a QR code at their nearest branch location or by visiting Mountain America's GivingTuesday page .
“Join us in making a difference this GivingTuesday by casting your vote and supporting the nonprofits making a positive impact in our communities,” said Suzanne Oliver, executive director of the Mountain America Foundation.“We are excited to see which organizations will receive the $28,000 based on your votes. Together, we can create a brighter future for those in need.”
At the conclusion of the voting period, all votes will be tallied, and the nonprofit organizations with the highest number of votes in each area will be declared the winners. These grants will be awarded on GivingTuesday, which falls on Dec. 3.
GivingTuesday, created in 2012, aims to encourage people to spread goodwill throughout their communities. Over the past 12 years, it has grown into a global movement, inspiring millions to be generous in their giving, collaboration, and celebration of generosity year-round.
