The Big Payback, hosted by the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, is a community-wide giving day which shines a spotlight on LOCAL giving and motivates Middle Tennessee to give back to nonprofits in a big way.

In 2022, we are setting our sights on reaching $18,000 raised during the giving day. The first $7,000 in donations will be matched dollar for dollar, doubling the value of your gift!
