This holiday season, we thank the 1,700 volunteers who donated time and professional skills to help nonprofits across the country strengthen their communities. With the support of these talented and generous people, we provided close to 200 nonprofits with new websites and digital marketing capabilities in 2017.  

48in48 is forging new ground in social entrepreneurship. We created our 501c3 organization to work with nonprofits across the globe to help them reach more donors and volunteers, and ultimately have a better chance of realizing their vision. We’re succeeding in our goal because digital professionals volunteer their time and skills to make a positive impact, and corporate sponsors contribute resources.

We take our stewardship very seriously! As we go into 2018, we’re committed to maximizing every dollar, providing great volunteer experiences – and most importantly – giving nonprofits the best chance at success.

This #GivingTuesday We Give Thanks 

Entering its sixth year, #GivingTuesday is a global day of giving fueled by the power of social media and collaboration that kicks off the charitable season.

We know that 48in48 wouldn’t exist without our amazing volunteers and sponsors. Through their time, talent and financial contributions, we supported nonprofits in Atlanta, New York City, Minneapolis and Boston. But we don’t want to stop there. We are growing in 2018 to build websites for 48 nonprofits in North Carolina and London! We’re taking it across the pond!

You can Join Us in Working Toward 48in48’s Big Goal

48in48 is committed to holding 48 events in 48 cities across the globe, totaling over 10,000 volunteers and $75 million dollars of services donated to nonprofits from digital professionals.

More about #GivingTuesday

Celebrated on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving (in the U.S.) and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season, when many focus on their holiday and end-of-year giving. Since its inaugural year in 2012, #GivingTuesday has become a movement that celebrates and supports giving and philanthropy to events throughout the year and a growing catalog of resources.
