The application period for the Permanent Fund Dividend is now officially open, marking the return of Pick.Click.Give, a program that allows Alaskans to donate a portion of their dividend to charitable causes across the state.
When applying for a PFD, residents can choose to support organizations they care about, including the Food Bank of Alaska, which helps address food insecurity in communities statewide. According to the Food Bank of Alaska, every $25 donated helps provide approximately 50 meals to neighbors in need.
Program organizers say Pick.Click.Give offers a simple and flexible way for Alaskans to give back while completing their PFD application. Donations are voluntary and can be customized, allowing applicants to support one or multiple nonprofits directly through the PFD process.
Food access continues to be a challenge for many Alaskans, particularly during winter months when costs and logistical barriers increase. Support through Pick.Click.Give helps nonprofit organizations maintain essential services and respond to ongoing community needs.
