Giving Tuesday offers unique way to give

There are two great ways you can support HPPR on Giving Tuesday. HPPR is part of both the Western Kansas Community Foundation’s Match Day and the Amarillo Area Foundation's The Panhandle Gives. You can donate through either program no matter where you live since neither program is geographically bound.

This year, Match Day and The Panhandle Gives play a critical role in our Up to Us campaign. Combined, this portion of the campaign seeks to raise $50,000. This is a substantial increase over the amount raised last year, reflecting HPPR’s extraordinary need at this time. If successful, an additional $55,000 in challenge funds will be applied at the end of the Giving Tuesday campaign.

To participate in the Amarillo Area Foundation's The Panhandle Gives campaign

Give online by going to HPPR’s page for The Panhandle Gives campaign and making a contribution between November 24 and December 2.

The Amarillo Area Foundation's The Panhandle Gives campaign offers a matching donation from an Amplification Fund; to be distributed to organizations in proportion to their share of the total funds raised. The more you give to HPPR and the more HPPR raises overall through The Panhandle Gives, the greater the share of funds HPPR will receive from the Amplification Fund. The specific goal for this portion of the campaign is $35,000, which will unlock an additional $40,000 in addition to what is earned through the Amplification Fund.

To participate in the Western Kansas Community Foundation’s Match Day

Contribute on-line at the HPPR’s MatchDay giving page –November 17- December 2.

Write a check made out to Western Kansas Community Foundation (WKCF) and write HPPR in the memo section. Mail it to Western Kansas Community Foundation, 402 N. Main Street, Garden City, KS 67846. Be sure it arrives at WKCF by December 2!

WKCF will host a live event at the First United Methodist Church, 1106 N. Main Street, Garden City, KS 67846 from 7am-7pm on Dec. 3, if you would like to make your contribution in person.

WKCF has matching funds to be distributed to participating organizations in proportion to their share of the total funds raised during the campaign. The more you give to HPPR and the more HPPR raises overall, the greater the share of the match funds HPPR will receive. The goal for MatchDay is $15,000. If we're successful in raising that amount, an additional $15,000 will be added in addition to the matching funds provided by WKCF.

For any questions about giving to HPPR through the WKCF's MatchDay, or The Panhandle Gives, please contact Abby Killingsworth at akillingsworth@hppr.org or (800) 678-7444.
