For the third straight year, our Brooklyn Gives on GivingTuesday campaign has surpassed our goal of raising $1M for local nonprofits! Thanks to the generosity of over 4,000 donors, 104 nonprofits across Brooklyn will be better equipped to carry out their missions this year. Brooklyn Org is so grateful to everyone who’s shown their support for Brooklyn on GivingTuesday and every day of the year.
Missed your chance to give to Brooklyn nonprofits? Year-round, you can discover local nonprofits through our Brooklyn Gives Nonprofit Connection. This brand new platform makes learning about organizations right in your own backyard easier than ever before.
We’re proud to support the incredible work of community partners across the borough – and are so inspired by the success of the nonprofits that maximized our platform to rally Brooklynites to give where they live. Below are the top nonprofits that rose through the ranks of our 2023 Brooklyn Gives on Giving Tuesday by most raised, most donors, and highest individual fundraisers.
Congratulations to all who participated and we can’t wait to do it again in 2024 – mark your calendars for GivingTuesday on November 26th.
