As Seattle Sounders FC prepares to host Columbus Crew SC on Saturday, May 5, the club encourages fans to arrive early to enjoy pre-match elements surrounding GIVEBIG, Seattle Foundation’s annual campaign promoting philanthropic giving throughout the community.
Sounders FC and Seattle Foundation have partnered on GIVEBIG since the beginning of the event in 2011, working to promote the 24-hour giving period where Seattleites are encouraged to give to local nonprofits. In total, GIVEBIG has raised nearly $100 million for local Seattle charities.
GIVEBIG 2018 takes place on Wednesday, May 9 and the Rave Green have special plans to encourage giving and involvement, starting with matchday on May 5, where Sounders FC is 6-1 all-time with its GIVEBIG-themed matches.
