2025 Coastal Bend Day of Giving - Early Giving

Join us for Coastal Bend's biggest day of philanthropy, the 17th annual Coastal Bend Day of Giving.  Administered through Coastal Bend Community Foundation, the Coastal Bend Day of Giving is a 24-hour, online matching gift program benefiting charities providing basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, childcare, and at-risk youth programs.

This year, 24 matching funders have pledged $1.6 million in matching funds, offering donors the opportunity to make gifts that are DOUBLED, up to $25,400 for each of the 63 local participating charities.

You can make your gift early during Early Giving, October 27th - November 3rd.  To give to your favorite charity or charities visit CoastalBendDayofGiving.org and click GIVE EARLY TODAY.  Gifts via credit/debit card or an electronic check are accepted using a shopping cart method to allow donations to multiple charities in one transaction and processed the same day made.  You can also join the excitement and donate on November 4th (12:00am - 11:59pm).

With your help, we can fight hunger, support children, improve health, and reduce homelessness right here in the Coastal Bend.  Since inception, over $36.6 million has been donated.
