More Chances to Win on #GivingTuesday: Social media contest announcement
Mightycause announced last week that we will be giving away $15,000 in prize grants on #GivingTuesday, courtesy of the Mightycause Foundation. But that’s not all: we’re holding social media contests that give your nonprofit even more chances to win!
