    0
    By Brandon Peoples on April 20, 2023 Local News, Manhattan

    Friday marks the 11th annual Grow Green Match Day in Manhattan.

    It’s the day when donations made through the Greater Manhattan Community Foundation to participating nonprofit endowed funds receive a 50% match. Last year, about $1.7 million was raised for 78 area organizations. GMCF President Vern Henricks says this year there are 95 participating nonprofits.

    Henricks says once again the effort is being aided by charitable contributions through Phil Howe and the Howe Family Foundation.
