There are rules. 
Of course, there always are rules! You may donate only online and only during the hours from 8 am, Tuesday, May 4 until 8 pm, Thursday, May 5. Please choose HomeHaven to receive your donations.

To make this more exciting, incentives and prizes are offered for various times and for various categories of both donors and recipients.

Targeted Times to Give. We are hoping to win one of the prizes being offered to induce donations during specific time periods. We are concentrating our efforts on three specific times:

  • Day 1 Early Bird prize, 8:00 am to 9:00 am on Tuesday, May 4
  • Day 2 Early Bird prize, 8:00 am to 9:00 am on Wednesday, May 5
  • Day 2 Last Call Happy Hour prize, 5:00 pm until 7:00 pm, Wednesday, May 5
  • A Griswold Home Care Match! Up to $3,000 based on the number of unique donors.

Please donate during the 3 time slots! We can win up to $5,000, but it all depends on the number of unique individual donors we get during these specified times. Individual donors can only be counted once within a time period, but you can give during successive targeted time periods. The minimum gift size is $5 (there is no maximum!), so please spread the total amount you want to donate over the three times we are targeting. Paraphrasing the old political joke on voting, we urge you to “Give early and often!”
