Early Giving Period and GiveNOLA Day

GiveNOLA Day returns on Tuesday, May 6, 2025. This fundraiser is
by the Greater New Orleans Foundation (www.gnof.org) and is a one-day online giving
event. For 24 hours, everyone can support their favorite local causes by donating to one
or more of the participating nonprofit organizations. Friends of the New Orleans Fire
Department is one of hundreds of nonprofits for GiveNOLA Day. We encourage
everyone to share with their family and friends to donate to Friends of the NOFD as it’s
the primary source of funding for all community outreach programs conducted by the
department. Friends of the NOFD has also been used to supplement the needs of
firefighters through the purchase of safety equipment. This year’s goal is $2,000. Before
GiveNOLA Day, there is an Early Giving Period scheduled for Tuesday, April 29, through
Monday, May 5, 2025. Everyone can share with their loved ones to donate during that
giving period. The link leading to the page for Friends of the NOFD is
www.givenola.org/organization/friendsofnofd. The minimum donation is $10. To donate
to additional fundraisers/nonprofit organizations, you can head to www.givenola.org.
