#GivingTuesday2024

#GivingTuesday is a day to lift up the things you value, the things you care about – things that make our community more connected and engaged.

To keep the tradition going, Boise State Public Radio celebrated by awarding two Idaho nonprofit organizations $1,000 in on-air messaging grants.
We asked you, our listeners, to nominate your favorite local nonprofit and the winners have been selected.
The grantees for 2024 are...
Idaho Playground Project and PAWS Rescue Inc!

Idaho Playground Project is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the right of every child to be able to play, regardless of physical or cognitive differences. Their focus is on adaptive playgrounds but also on toys, books, and games. They aim to build or renovate 100 playgrounds at Idaho elementary schools by 2033.

PAWS Rescue, Inc is a nonprofit that saves all breeds of animals, regardless of age. They also take in animals who have been hit by vehicles, shot, abandoned, abused, and/or neglected and work to find them foster homes or partner facilities that don't practice euthanasia. They provide medical evaluations and treatment to give each animal a second chance.

Thank you to everyone who took part in making this year's Giving Tuesday a success!
