In its third year, Big Give Houston continues to bring together community-wide donors and nonprofits for 24-hours of giving. More than 150 nonprofits represented the Houston-area, highlighting their philanthropic missions and initiatives throughout Texas.
The Big Give Houston team accomplished so much during their first year on the GiveGab platform!
