More than $325,000 has been raised so far today and counting, through Give Local MOV. Today is the day you can multiply the impact of your gift to your favorite nonprofits working right here in the Mid-Ohio Valley! Your donations through www.GiveLocalMOV.org enable your favorite nonprofits to earn significant matching funds and cash prizes. 

Give Local MOV is powered by the Parkersburg Area Community Foundation (PACF) which provides the secure online giving platform, underwrites campaign costs, and provides education for its 55 nonprofit partners. Many generous community supporters, led by Superior Toyota and Williamstown Bank, supplied the critical matching funds. In addition to the matching funds, hourly cash prizes sponsored by various local businesses reward nonprofits whose supporters contribute throughout the day. 

With only a few hours left to the campaign, matching funds and prizes are still available:
