This year’s Fremont Area Big Give marks a major milestone—10 years of generosity, community spirit, and impact. To celebrate, a special 10th Anniversary Endowment Prize will award one participating nonprofit with a $10,000 endowment at the Fremont Area Community Foundation.

Unlike a one-time gift, an endowment is invested for long-term growth, providing annual support that helps sustain an organization’s mission well into the future. It’s a powerful way to turn today’s generosity into lasting impact.

Nonprofits qualify for the drawing by rallying support—encouraging at least 25 donors to give $25 or more and raising a minimum of $2,500. That means every gift during the Big Give doesn’t just support immediate needs—it also helps organizations build a stronger, more sustainable future.

As you plan your giving, know that your donation could do more than you think. It could help spark an investment that continues giving back to our community for years to come.
