Alaskans give $2.4 million through Pick.Click.Give.

The Permanent Fund Dividend amount has been announced for 2013, and Alaskans each will get their share either deposited directly into their bank accounts or mailed to them starting Oct. 3^rd.

Some Alaskans won’t get the full $900, though. About 5 percent of those receiving a PFD this year have chosen to give a portion of their annual check to state nonprofit agencies through the Pick.Click.Give. program.
