CHARITIES HOPE PFD GIFTS EXCEED COSTS

The new Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend donation program called “Pick. Click. Give.” raised $550,000 this year, but is expected to cost about $900,000 to administer during the program’s first three years.

The program, the result of legislation sponsored by Rep. Bill Thomas, R-Haines, in 2008 has already paid for hundreds of groups around the state, including a couple dozen in Juneau.
