| Our GivingTuesday goal is yours to make ▸ |
I know it’s the weekend. Thank you for opening — I’ll keep this brief. GivingTuesday is coming up, and a group of fellow Mercy Corps supporters is prepared to match donations on that day. We really want this to be a community effort, so you now have a choice to make: What goal should we set for Mercy Corps supporters pitching in on GivingTuesday? We’ve got three options, and I need your vote to make the call:
The group of donors behind this GivingTuesday match — Ruth from Washington, Dennis from Oregon, Carlos from Brooklyn, and more than 3,500 others — really want to inspire the Mercy Corps community of humanitarians to give. The more ambitious our GivingTuesday goal is, the bigger their matching gift will be. As the Americas Regional Director for Mercy Corps, I know that when this community comes together, we can accomplish extraordinary things. I saw how much of an impact Mercy Corps supporters made in the days, weeks and months after Hurricane Dorian devastated the Bahamas — from helping to mobilize emergency teams and distributing supplies, to partnering with Mission Resolve Foundation to install a reverse osmosis water treatment plant so that more people could have access to clean water. Right now, as families in the Bahamas continue to recover, Mercy Corps teams are helping hundreds more communities around the world where women, men and children are living through crises caused by natural disaster, conflict and the devastating impacts of climate change. That’s why I hope the community will come together again in a big way this GivingTuesday. Wherever the vote lands, that’s what we’ll aim for in just a few days. To weigh in, please respond by midnight tomorrow! Every dollar raised and matched on Tuesday will power our work in more than 40 countries to help families become more resilient to the effects of climate change, partner with communities on breakthrough solutions to poverty and hunger, help refugees survive and thrive in their host communities, and more. Thanks for your time, and for helping set this important goal! Sincerely, Provash Budden Americas Regional Director |
