The Salina Fieldhouse bustled with energy today as dozens of organizations gathered for Match Madness. The Greater Salina Community Foundation matched up to 50% of all donations from its $313,000 match pool.
More than 100 local fifth graders visited the fundraiser, and each of them donated $10 to an organization of their choice. Donate online at www.matchmadnessgscf.org
Donations will continue to be accepted and matched until 7 p.m. this evening, and later online until 11 p.m.
