Atlanta magazine’s GIVE Atlanta Challenge gives Georgia-based charities the opportunity raise funds (and awareness) while also competing to win additional grants and prizes. Each year, the participating nonprofits keep the money they raised through each donation and competed to win additional cash grants.
