#giveNNY 315Day

Thank you to all who generously donated to this year’s #giveNNY 315Day campaign.   With the support of more than 300 individuals, families and businesses and a matching grant of $10,000 from the Northern New York Community Foundation over $40,000 was raised to support this year’s #giveNNY campaign and the 61 participating North Country non-profits.   The Thousand Islands Land Trust was proud to be a part of this exciting and community driven campaign.   

315Day was a unique event that is part of #giveNNY, the grassroots community-based movement spearheaded by the NNYCF that has united 61 non-profits throughout Jefferson, St. Lawrence, and Lewis Counties.  It helps highlight the important work accomplished in partnership with donors, and within our communities.

TILT celebrated 315Day on March 15, 2021 with 60 other area non-profit by spreading kindness and awareness around the tri-county region (Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence Counties) Together these non-profits worked in collaboration to celebrate this great North Country community and raise awareness of the incredible work happening among the diverse nonprofits supporting this region.  

TILT would like to extend a special thank you to the Thousand Island businesses that participated in this event. Learn more about our sponsors.
