Give Grandly, the annual giving fair and online event for donating to local nonprofits, starts online tonight at 12:01am and runs until April 24. Online donations can be done by going to www.GiveGrandly.org (or www.southernnewmexicogivingday.org /) and once there, just enter "Silver City" or Grant County in the search bar to get local nonprofits.
This year, Give Grandly and Southern New Mexico Giving Day of Las Cruces have combined. The Community Foundation of Southern New Mexico is coordinating the event which will happen simultaneously in Las Cruces, so you will find many nonprofits from Las Cruces at the website (that is why you need to search for Silver City or Grant County).
