Match Day is Here!

The Emporia Match Day is your opportunity to support local nonprofit organizations! This year 35 area organizations are participating in the 2024 Emporia Area Match Day. Your qualifying contributions to participating organizations on Match Day will receive a match based on a prorated basis. A huge thank you to the following donors who have provided the $170,000 matching funds: the Clint Bowyer 79 Fund; the ECF Fund for the Future; the Emporia Masonic Lodge No. 12, A.F. & A.M.; the Gilpin Family Fund; the WS & EC Jones Testamentary Trust, Bank of America, N.A. Trustee; the Laurent Charitable Family Fund; the Curtis McCreary Legacy Fund; the Preston Family Trust; Merry and Charles Rayl;  the Jane and Bernard Reeble Endowed Fund; and the Trusler Foundation. In addition, due to a partnership with the Kansas Association of Community Foundations, the Patterson Family Foundation announced a match program for community foundations in the communities they serve for up to $70,000 per award.  

Donate today as we watch the matching funds grow for our friends, neighbors and groups in our communities.
