Wednesday is Georgia Gives Day -- Give to Your Favorite Meow

Give to Your Favorite Charity on Georgia Gives Day, Wednesday, November 13. We hope it's Good Mews

GA Gives Day Georgia Gives Day is a collaboration of the Georgia Center for Nonprofits, in partnership with several nonprofits, corporations, foundations, and PR firms. Good Mews is pleased to be a participating charity.

The campaign is designed to encourage Georgia residents to "give where they live" on a specific day. New this year are Power Hours: within specific hours, the charity with the most donors will receive a $1000 bonus!

If you are planning to give on Georgia Gives Day, please consider making your donation between 1-2 PM on Wednesday, November 13th. Remember this is for the MOST donors, NOT for the most dollars donated, so no gift is too small.
