Once again, Harper County proved what can happen when a community comes together. During the fourth annual Match Day campaign, a total of $195,505.09 was raised to support local nonprofits making a difference right here at home.
Thanks to the continued partnership with the Patterson Family Foundation, a 50% match totaling $97,752.55 was added—stretching every dollar further and bringing the total impact of this year’s campaign to just under $300,000.
While the campaign fell just short of the $200,000 community giving goal, the generosity shown across Harper County tells a bigger story—one of people who care deeply about their neighbors, their communities, and the organizations serving them every day.
Participating organizations receiving matched donations include:
- Anthony Community Care Center
