Your #GivingTuesdayNow Results
Hello supporters,
Yesterday, we joined together with other nonprofits for #GivingTuesdayNow, a global day of emergency giving and volunteering. Here’s what you accomplished for 24 Sudanese teachers in Yida Refugee Camp.
84% Goal REACHED
Our #GivingTuesdayNow purpose was welcoming 50 new members into The Renewal, our family of monthly givers. We came up a little short, but you made really good progress.
YOU SURPRISED US
We weren’t expecting you to make one-time donations, start fundraising pages or spread the word. You did anyway.
Two of you even took initiative and started campaigns to raise support for the teachers in Yida. It never gets old watching our movement leap into action.
What Comes Next
As we wrap up #GivingTuesdayNow, this is a great opportunity to look to the next few months.
The road to sustaining our teachers in Yida through the pandemic has more challenges ahead. We’ll only face them down if we stick together.
Every summer we have a series of brand partnership and private events. Most of these high-impact fundraising activities won't be taking place this year due to the pandemic.
Unlike when we were forced to postpone our annual gala in March, we are aware that this fight is coming. The good news is that we know how to overcome it. By August, we will need 200 monthly givers on the Do Justice campaign. It’s going to be an uphill battle.
Your support on #GivingTuesdayNow helped lay early groundwork for us to tackle this summer. We’re grateful that you are still showing up for the teachers in Yida. Stay safe. Talk to you soon.
Onwards,
Mark C. Hackett
