Peter Geraci and Holly Geraci will add more challenges in 2018

In 2018, Holly Geraci and her husband, Peter Francis Geraci, are looking forward to more success with their grant challenges.

It has been over a year since the first Help Holly Help grant challenge. Since October of 2016, Peter and Holly Geraci have helped raise over $200,000 as part of the matching grant challenges. The last challenge, the Boulevard Challenge, raised more than $10,000 and took Help Holly Help well over the $200,000 mark. Each nonprofit, with the exception of the Alano Club challenge, is challenged by Peter and Holly Geraci to raise more than $10,000 during the grant challenge period.

The last six challenges have exceeded the grant challenge maximum and received $10,000 from Holly Geraci and Peter Francis Geraci. Although each challenge has been different, there has been one constant, public support. During the challenges, donations have come in all sizes. Some donations have been as small as $5.00 and others as much as $10,000. Each challenge has certainly invigorated donors to either donate earlier or donate more to help raise money.

In 2018, Holly Geraci and her husband, Peter Francis Geraci, are looking forward to more success. Each year, Help Holly Help looks to help raise more than $100,000 to assist nonprofits using their grant challenge campaigns. Holly Geraci posts the results of the grant challenge publicly on her site, www.helphollyhelp.com.
