RE and Give Miami Day

We invite you to join us on Thursday, November 18, for Give Miami Day, a 24-hour community giving opportunity. Although The Fund for RE lasts the full fiscal year (July 1 - June 30), November 18 is a meaningful day to make your gift. Each year, Give Miami Day provides an opportunity for the community to come together in support of local non-profits. We hope you will consider supporting RE by spreading the word or contributing if you haven’t already made a commitment this school year.
1. When is Give Miami Day?
Give Miami Day 2021 is Thursday, November 18. The 24-hour online event begins at 12 a.m. EST on November 18 and ends at 12 a.m. EST on November 19. Early Giving launches on Monday, November 15 at 12 a.m. All gifts made during Early Giving are eligible for the bonus pool percentage match.

Credit card donations will be subject to a credit card and transaction fee of about 4.5%. Donors may choose to cover the fee so that Ransom Everglades receives the full amount that was donated.
