Pop Up Giving
Fast. Fun. Instant Impact by Giving Together
Pop Up Giving (PUG) is a collaborative giving event where the crowd funds the pot, hears three nonprofits pitch and votes to decide where the money goes. Each PUG event focuses on a United Way impact area: Education, Income, Health or Basic Needs. Themes are announced and nominations are solicited on the United Way Facebook page before each event.
