About the Hoboken Chamber
The Hudson County Chamber Foundation is a 501(c)3, charitable nonprofit, organization founded in 2018 to assist the Hudson County Chamber of Commerce in advancing its mission to be the leading resource for driving economic growth—providing education, advocacy and access to our members within and throughout each community in Hudson County.
#HudsonGives: One Day, One Community, Making it Happen
We hosted #HudsonGives, the first major initiative of the Hudson Chamber Foundation, on May 17, 2019 and partnered with 77 nonprofits to raise $127,097 by engaging 1,207 donors from the wider community. Thank you to everyone who helped us make #HudsonGives a success in its first year!
#HudsonGives is a 24-hour, online giving day just for Hudson County. Organized through a centralized giving site, www.hudsongives.org, it is a way to amplify the messaging, visibility and fundraising of the nonprofit sector. We greatly exceeded our expectations in this first year of #HudsonGives. Stay tuned for information about #HudsonGives 2020.
