Portage Health Foundation matching your Giving Tuesday donation dollar-for-dollar

HANCOCK, Mich. (WLUC) - It’s Giving Tuesday and the Portage Health Foundation (PHF) is fundraising for 26 non-profit organizations in the Copper Country.

In its five years of #givingtuesday campaigns, the Portage Health Foundation has helped raise over $1.9 million dollars to disperse through the community.

But, they wouldn’t be able to do it without your help.

The PHF will match your donation dollar-for-dollar up to $200,000 until 11:59 p.m. tonight.

John Diebel of the Keweenaw Nordic Ski Club explains why you get what you give when you donate to the non-profit through the Giving Tuesday campaign.

The Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly is another one of 26 recipients in the Portage Health Foundation’s Giving Tuesday fundraiser.

Director Cathy Kass-Aken says that a donation will go a long when in keeping community members happy and healthy.
