Last year, during our first-ever Big Day of Giving campaign, 38 donors helped EDHAF raise over $30,000!

Can we count on you this year?

Our Goals

We’ve got not one, but two ambitious targets for this momentous day:

1. Raise $20,000 toward our mission. 96% of all donations to EDHAF directly support community grant-making.

2. Recruit and welcome 10 new Giving Circle Members. Do you know someone who'd love to join? Now is the perfect time to invite them! Recruitment is a key goal for our Big Day of Giving and the Cinco de Mayo Social. Thanks to our growing membership, we've doubled our grant limit to $10,000 over the past two years. Imagine the incredible impact we can make together during the 2026 Grant Cycle! Let's grow our Giving Circle and continue to make a difference in our community.

Our Campaign

As the clock ticks toward midnight on May 1st, we'll be celebrating our impact and expressing our gratitude on Facebook. For every BDOG donation, a golden leaf with your name will be added to our EDHAF Oak Tree, showcasing the incredible collective efforts of our BDOG supporters. Join our “Because of You” visual campaign and see the difference we make together!

But wait, there’s more! Brace yourselves for heartfelt testimonials from our 2025 Grant Recipients and Giving Circle Members. They’ll speak from the heart and share what it truly means to be a part of collective giving and community through their individual stories and insightful words.

While the official Big Day of Giving date is May 1st, early giving begins April 17th!
