Willamette Week's 2008 Give!Guide effort concluded at midnight on December 31. We are taking no more donations.

Your support this year was nothing short of amazing! See the “Giving at a Glance” charts on this page to see this year’s unofficial final results.

Meantime, all of us who worked on this year's G!G — and the 55 nonprofits who benefited from your generosity — can't thank you enough. We hope you'll participate again next November and December.

P.S.: If you know of a local nonprofit that would like to participate in WW's 2009 Give!Guide, look for a call for nominations in Willamette Week in July.

The Skidmore Prize gets its inspiration from the eponymous fountain in Old Town, which bears this inscription: "Good Citizens Are The Riches Of A City." This year's winners are Katy Kolker (Portland Fruit Tree Project), Rodolfo Serna (P:EAR), Amy Harwood (Bark), Polly Bangs (Urban Opportunities), and Justin Hocking, Honorable Mention (Independent Publishing Resource Center).

The 2007 Give!Guide raised more than $518,000.

"You didn't have to give much to get stuff back, which is great incentive…and made it easy for me to convince my friends to do it.”

"The best things about the Give!Guide website are the celebration of Oregon's awesome non-profit community and donor recognition."

"I think it appeals to those of us who are young and broke….it makes it obvious that every donation, no matter how small, adds up and counts significantly."

"The best thing about the Give!Guide website is that it's simple & easy and available."
