8:46 PM: A bit more than three hours to go in this year’s GiveBIG one-day donate-a-thon organized by The Seattle Foundation, which has “stretch dollars” to add to donations made to participating nonprofits until 11:59 tonight. Around the city/region, people are answering the call:
We passed another milestone–as of 7pm we're at $10.1 million in #GiveBIG donations. Amazing!

If you missed it earlier – or saw it and forgot to go back and do something about it – here once more is the link to the page we put together with 70+ participating LOCAL nonprofits, working in West Seattle, White Center, and/or South Park. Show one or more some $ love if you can, with the knowledge each dollar will go further!
1:20 AM: And the final regional tally:
$12.89 million. 64,000 donations. I think we can officially call it a successful #GiveBIG! Thanks everyone! pic.twitter.com/HDagwlGunM
