is to serve the nonprofit community, providing support for their
vital services and programs. There are more than a thousand nonprofits
in Middle Tennessee addressing needs and helping our community

For 10 weeks, The CFMT $1K
Nonprofit Giveaway will give $100 a week to a Middle Tennessee nonprofit submitted by CFMT’s followers on Twitter. Follow
us now.
The nonprofit you submit must
be profiled in GivingMatters.com. A nonprofit does not have to
have a Twitter account for the organization; it’s up to CFMT’s Twitter followers to submit the
nonprofit’s name, and get others to submit it too.
Each time a unique Twitter user submits a nonprofit, the name of the nonprofit will be entered into a random drawing for the week. The more times a nonprofit name is in the drawing, the better its chances of winning.
The deadline for submissions is Friday at 10:00 a.m. Submissions posted on Twitter after 10:00 a.m. are not eligible for that day's drawing but will be included in the following week's drawing. The nonprofit winner will be announced on Friday afternoon.
- Nonprofit
organizations submitted must be profiled in GivingMatters.com and
a qualified 501(c)3 serving
the 40 counties of Middle
Tennessee, which is CFMT’s
service area. Colleges and
universities, religious institutions, and private schools
are not eligible for the giveaway. (What
are the 40 counties of Middle
Tennessee?)
- One nonprofit organization or its specific programs can win the weekly giveaway a maximum of two times. If a nonprofit or its programs are selected twice during the 10-week giveaway period, they are no longer eligible for the $100 giveaway.
