The resolution declares February 13, 2025, as "Giving Hearts Day" in North Dakota, recognizing the significance of this annual event that began in 2008. Initiated by the Dakota Medical Foundation and Impact Foundation, with the Alex Stern Family Foundation joining later, Giving Hearts Day serves as a 24-hour regional giving event that allows citizens to support numerous charitable organizations dedicated to enhancing health and quality of life in the state. Since its inception, the event has raised over $195 million, with last year's contributions totaling $29.3 million from 40,000 donors, benefiting 612 charities.

The resolution highlights the ongoing efforts of the supporting foundations to train and empower nonprofit organizations, aiming to expand their community impact. For 2025, nearly 625 charitable causes will participate, with over $250 million in awards and incentives available. The initiative aspires to establish North Dakota as the most generous region in the nation by 2028, promoting volunteerism and charitable giving. The resolution also mandates that copies be sent to the involved foundations to acknowledge their contributions to this significant day.
