The National Park Foundation has the opportunity to receive up to $3 million through Target Corporationâs "Bullseye Gives," a two-week-long giving campaign on Facebook that will run from May 10th through May 25th. Facebook users will vote to decide how Target distributes this support among ten nonprofit organizations. The percentage of votes the National Park Foundation receives will represent its portion of the $3 million.
This campaign is an unprecedented opportunity for average citizens to help provide substantial cash support for the National Park Foundation and its work without opening their wallets.
All votes will be cast and updated in real time on the Target Facebook page (see below) throughout the course of the contest. Facebook users can vote once per day, every day, throughout the contest. The final charitable donation allocations per charity will be announced on May 26th.
The remaining charities include the American Red Cross, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Feeding America, HandsOn Network/Points of Light Institute, Kids In Need Foundation, Operation Gratitude, Parent Teacher Association, St. Jude Childrenâs Research Hospital and The Salvation Army.
