A program of theSacramento Region Community Foundation’s Give Local Now campaign and 529 non-profits in the five county region. The Big Day of Giving, or BigDOG as it has become known, is a twenty four hour marathon of giving aimed at activating everyday citizens as philanthropists. In the weeks ahead of the campaign, the Foundation was in need of a professional team to manage content generation and engagement throughout the activation of the campaign.

OUR APPROACH 

Two week prior to the Day of Giving, the MKTNG team collaborated with the Sacramento Region Community Foundation team to promote the Big Day of Giving. MKTNG took over the campaign’s official social media accounts for the two week period ahead of the Day of Giving in addition to the day of. MKTNG staff was onsite for the entire 24 hours during the giving campaign as well as at two separate satellite events, monitoring the official accounts and providing live updates to the public about prizes and benchmarks throughout the campaign.
