What if there was a day designed specifically to make it easy to give to what matters most to you? Fortunately, Colorado has such a day, Colorado Gives Day.
Colorado Gives Foundation, along with presenting sponsor FirstBank, created this giving day fifteen years ago to unite Colorado in a wave of generosity while making giving easy. The day has since fundraised more than $469 million, including $54.2 million last year, which would not have been possible without the kindness of our donors.
Early giving opened on November 1st, and every donation made through ColoradoGivesDay.org gets amplified by incentive fund matches and prizes, culminating with the big event on Tuesday, Dec. 10.
“Whether you care about protecting our environment, supporting the arts, education or finding a cure for cancer, you can find the causes that matter to you on ColoradoGivesDay.org,” said Kelly Dunkin, president and CEO of Colorado Gives Foundation. “It’s easily the best day to give and to join thousands of other people who care about Colorado communities.”
Colorado Gives Foundation is offering an additional incentive for anyone who sets up a monthly recurring donation on ColoradoGives.org between Nov. 1 and Dec. 10. The Foundation will match the first month’s recurring donation up to $100 with a total match pool of $250,000 across all organizations.
Don’t wait—find a cause and secure your match before the funds run out!
You can join the wave of generosity by finding causes you care about, it only takes a little time to make a big impact. Colorado Gives is trusted by more than 600,000 donors and makes it easy to donate to multiple nonprofits with a single transaction. Each nonprofit is a registered 501(c)(3) serving Colorado.
Colorado Gives Foundation is also lighting up the skies on GivingTuesday – Tuesday December 3rd with FREE drone shows across the state and invites you to join to raise awareness about Colorado Gives Day.
GivingTuesday is a global giving event that encourages people to do good. It also happens to occur during the Colorado Gives Day giving event, which is November 1 – December 10. In Colorado, we celebrate GivingTuesday by encouraging people to donate to the causes that matter most to them using ColoradoGivesDay.org.
Join us on GivingTuesday, Dec. 3, 6:30 – 7:30 p.m., in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins or Arvada for a drone show and a free hot beverage (while supplies last). The show will highlight Colorado Gives Day and the various causes you can support. This event is free and open to the public.
Join thousands of Colorado nonprofits and donors in making good happen for Colorado Gives Day. For more information on how to give, join the challenge and find a cause you care about, visit www.ColoradoGivesDay.org
