$3.8 million.  584 nonprofits receiving donations.  14,342 donors

This June, NH Gives held a 24-hour fundraiser for literally hundreds of nonprofit organizations in our state.  The idea is to get everyone to pick one window of time for maximum awareness to the various local causes.
I had the remarkable opportunity to co-host the kickoff and close of this momentous event with iHeart Radio morning show host extraordinaire Greg Kretschmar, of Greg and the Morning Buzz fame.  I’ve known him and considered him a friend for 20 years, but this was the first chance that we had to actually work on a project together.
There’s something to be said for trust, chemistry, and friendship when it comes to live broadcast.  The ease with which we moved through various updates and live interview segments is a testament to the fantastic organization of the NH Gives team, led by Kristen Oliveri and Mary Jo Brown, but it showcased that the right ingredients, the right plan, the right time can lead to magic.
$3.8 million dollars was raised in 24 hours, a record for the six-year-old event.  Greg and I take zero credit for that success, it belongs to every one of the 14-thousand people who donated.
It was a career highlight for me to be a part of a wild success alongside a group of truly special and gifted individuals.  Greg and I had a blast and are already talking about next year.
For all who gave, my deepest appreciation.  You reinforce what is truly wonderful about our state.  Thanks for supporting nonprofit organizational causes in our state.  Thank you for letting me share in the fun!
