The First Community Foundation Partnership of Pennsylvania and the SUN Tech Educational Foundation are excited to announce Raise the Region 2013, an event to help the community support local nonprofit organizations fund raising efforts.  FCFP, in partnership with Blaise Alexander Family Dealerships, will be launching a 24-hour fundraising event on March 12, 2013.  Blaise Alexander Family Dealerships has donated $125,000 that will be used to match a portion of donations made to preregistered nonprofits.  Additional monetary prizes and incentives, sponsored by Larson Design Group, will be awarded throughout the entire event.  This program is designed to help SUN Tech’s 501 (c) (3) Educational Foundation kickoff our 2013 fundraising campaigns and increase our donor base.

How It Works

1. On March 12, donors will visit www.raisetheregion.org from a computer, smart phone, iPad, etc.
2. Identify the nonprofits participating in the event and learn how their work is impacting our community.
3. Make an online donation to support one or more of those nonprofit organizations on the Raise the Region website.
4. Running totals will be shown throughout the day at the Raise the Region website.
