| Are you ready to BE THE ONE | The 2024 Giving Challenge We’re counting down the hours to April 9-10 and the 2024 Giving Challenge. We need your help to make our campaign a success, and we’ve included a few easy ways that you can support us. The Giving Challenge is a unique opportunity in our area that is sponsored by The Community Foundation of Sarasota and The Patterson Foundation. For every dollar given between $25-100, the Patterson Foundation will match that gift…mean, every dollar given goes further! In order to meet our goal, we need your help! Share and share alike. Online days of giving such as the Giving Challenge are successful because of our own networks. Help us grow our network by sending the below email to your network and ask your friends to do the same. SHARE THIS EMAIL AND FACEBOOK LINKS. We are writing to ask you to take five minutes to give to Wintergarden Presbyterian Church (DBA Garden of Eatin’) After that, you can give to other nonprofits that do work that you support or just kick back and watch how high the giving can go at GivingChallenge.org! Your donation of any amount will help us meet our goal of $20,000. It is our hope to raise more money to help us become better stewards of our creation by reducing our utility bills by adding solar panels and a water catchment system, so we have more resources for serving our community. Here’s how you can make a HUGE difference today:Make a donation (link to your Giving Challenge page!)Spread the word. Text a friend. Forward this email. Post on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #GivingChallenge2024. Oh, and you can also just tell someone in person – that works, too.Come by the church on Tuesday from 12-5pm or Wednesday from 9-12pm if you would like to give a check or make a cash donation. Share a Text message the day of to encourage Friends and Family to contribute. Example: “Wintergarden Presbyterian Church – Garden of Eatin’ is participating in The 2024 Giving Challenge TODAY AND TOMORROW only! Our mission to Feed People means a lot to me. Please check out our profile and consider giving a gift. Every little bit counts” and make sure to share the profile link! Be socially (media) active. Use your social media networks: post on Facebook, tweet about the Giving Challenge, and share your love for your particular passion, whether it’s education, health care, animals, or the arts. Ask others to do the same. Thank you for being “the one” and help us reach our goal! Blessings, Pastor Devon |
