The IRS tax deadline was Apr. 15. Wish you’d donated more to charity so you’d get a bigger refund? Or did you get a nice refund and want to do something good with it? Please donate to us from Apr. 21–May 5 at: giveforgoodnla.org/organization/NEWARTSCULTURALSOCIETY

The Community Foundation of North Louisiana describes this wonderful giving opportunity as follows:

---

On May 5 the Community Foundation and 245 local non-profits [including us] will come together for North Louisiana’s largest day of giving—Give For Good!

During Give For Good everyone becomes a philanthropist. This online giving event is an engaging and exciting 24-hour challenge led by the Community Foundation of North Louisiana. It raises millions of dollars in unrestricted funds for North Louisiana organizations and unites community members in celebrating the vital work of nonprofits.

Since its launch in 2014, Give for Good has sparked generosity from thousands of donors, resulting in over 90,000 donations and raising more than $25 million in critical funding for local nonprofits that strengthen our community.

Last year, 4,200 donors came together to raise a record $2.94 million to support 221 local nonprofits!

This year, we invite you to be part of the biggest impact yet! By donating just $10, anyone can join in to make a difference in our community.

—How to Give—

1. Visit giveforgoodnla.org from April 21–May 5.

What makes it even more exciting? Every donation is amplified through the Lagniappe Fund—a bonus pool of over $200,000 that will be distributed via pro rata matching and prizes. Since 2014, the Lagniappe Fund has awarded $2.9 million in bonus funds and prizes to participating nonprofits.
