All nonprofit organizations are encouraged to register now at https://www.nepagives.org/register and begin to spread the word about the event to their supporters. The registration deadline is May 19 at 5 p.m., but nonprofits that register before May 4 qualify for a $500 incentive if $500 is raised on the giving days.
In-person events are scheduled for June 1 at Rodanos, Wilkes-Barre and June 2 at both The Settlers Inn in Hawley and the Hilton in Scranton.
