Welcome to the North Texas Giving Day 2025 page for One Heart McKinney! North Texas Giving Day 2024 was a record year, with $63.8 million raised for more than 3,000 nonprofits. We are blessed to be a part of such a showing of kindness and support. This year, a second matching gift has been provided, providing another $500 in matching funds for One Heart McKinney, meaning the next $500 of online donations received through Giving Day will be doubled.
More than 1,000 families have used our application portal over the last two years during times of individual or family crisis, resulting in more than 3,400 referrals to organizations both inside and outside of our network. Working with our partners, more than 150 families have received the critical funds needed to stay housed with the lights on. While I would love to say the living situation for our friends and neighbors is improving, that is not the case. Please come alongside us financially as we accelerate access to the vital services and support our friends in crisis need.
Later this year, we will be assisting with the rollout of CarePortal, a platform to connect kids and their families with tangible needs to people and organizations who are willing to help meet needs across our city. The potential economic impact of the work we already do is more than $400,000 per year, and we believe based on CarePortal's success across the country, the potential is many hundreds of thousands of dollars more.
North Texas Giving Day 2025 is September 18, and early giving begins on August 28! Thank you to North Texas Giving Day and the generous folks who allow us to serve our community and make a tangible impact in the lives of our friends and neighbors.
