More than 4,000 donors helped raise a record $10,841,320 for 89 local nonprofits during the 2026 Great Fish Community Challenge, a 34% increase over last year. Thanks to our generous community and the continued growth of the Circle of Giving, this year's Great Fish Match was the largest in Challenge history. Each participating nonprofit received a 76% match on $25,000 raised, resulting in a maximum matching grant of up to $19,000 per organization.
