Bit-Wizards’ Be the Magic Foundation reinforced its support of the local community in its third year. Through various partnerships, 23 local nonprofits, organizations, and students received $156,943 in cash donations and over $363,680 in services and volunteer support throughout 2023.

In total, BTMF contributed $520,625, the most significant donation amount to date.

Founded in 2021, BTMF aims to make the future of Northwest Florida stronger and more viable through the support of Youth Development, Adults & Children with Special Needs, Animal Welfare, and Community Development.

100% of all funding received by BTMF goes to its nonprofit partners. Bit-Wizards covers all administrative expenses, promotion and advertising costs, and other Foundation overhead.

This ensures that every cent donated directly impacts the Northwest Florida nonprofit community, according to Bit-Wizards.

“In 2023, the Be the Magic Foundation radiated brilliance, channeling our commitment through monetary donations of $156,943, dedicating 2,975 hours of skilled labor, and fervently backing 23 remarkable organizations,” said Louis Erickson, Co-Founder of Bit-Wizards and Be the Magic Foundation Vice President. “Our steadfast dedication to creating a positive impact remains unyielding. Together, we embrace the enchanting power of our Wizards’ philanthropic magic to create transformative change in the lives of our neighbors and the community at large.”
