For us, Giving Tuesday has always been more vision-raising than fundraising. When we engage more people’s hearts with a shared vision, we are stronger in all the ways. Our mission is to care for foster and adopted children and their grownups by empowering relationships within and between families. It is our hope that over the next 2 weeks as we approach Giving Tuesday, more people will share our vision for what are doing now and where we are headed as we care for families.
It is a hard season for many. We have set our Giving Tuesday 2022 funding goal high, in spite of and because of this season of heightened need for the families we serve. Our giving goal for Giving Tuesday on November 29th is $60,000: $30,000 for general operating needs so we can keep our doors open, $15,000 for our Sparrow Services Grant program currently supporting 32 families until they are home for a full year, and $15,000 for new opportunities because we want to keep growing. To help us get there, a few generous, committed donors have pledged to match all gifts dollar for dollar up to $20,000. What that means is that whatever you give–small, medium, or large–will be doubled until we reach $20,000 to give us a super strong start towards that $60,000 goal.
