SUMMARY:KRM LEX: GoodGiving Challenge!
DESCRIPTION:Support KRM Lexington and donate during the 2024 Blue Grass Community Foundation GoodGiving Challenge! Early giving will start on November 26 and last until December 3rd and then the challenge really gets going from December 3 at 9:00am through December 6 at 11:59pm. More than 200 amazing nonprofits in Central and Appalachian Kentucky will participate this year\, including KRM Lexington. \nDonations made during the GoodGiving Challenge are used to support refugees and other forcibly displaced people with quickly accessible and flexible funding that can pay for things like housing\, utilities\, groceries\, and emergencies. \nThe best part about GoodGiving is that the gifts you make through the BGgives website could be matched or help us qualify for additional prize money! This means that your gifts can have an even greater impact in the work of welcome. \nWhen to Give \nAny day during the challenge is a good day to give\, but with a little strategizing\, you can make your gift go farther. You can even break up your total gift into a couple of smaller donations to really stretch those dollars and help KRM Lexington qualify for matching funds and prizes. \nWe have a more detailed decision guide that you’ll see on social media\, but here are some key times to donate: \nTuesday\, Dec. 3 | 11am – 11pm = Total donations will receive a 2% match and there is the opportunity to earn a $1\,011 Groovalution Prize for KRM Lexington. \nWednesday\, Dec. 4 | 9am – 11:59am = $1 to $1 match on donations up to $50. Any donation up to $50 each will be doubled! \nThursday\, Dec. 5 | 1pm – 9pm = If KRM is able to get at least 50 unique donors to give at least $25 during that time\, KRM could win an extra $2\,500-$10\,000 for our endowment. Donations up to $250 during this window (until the match funds are exhausted) are also matched at $0.50 to the dollar\, so if you give $100\, KRM gets $150. \n⇒  If you want to supercharge your donation of up to $100 on this day\, be sure to make your gift between 4-6pm\, the closer to 4pm the better. There is an additional $0.50 per $1 match for the first $2500 in donations during that time frame. $25 could become $50 and help qualify KRM for the endowment challenge. This is an excellent time to give! \nFriday\, Dec. 6 | 12pm – 11:59am = Last chance for matching funds: gifts up to $500 are matched at $0.50 per $1 to close out the challenge. Turn $500 into $750! \nCan’t donate this year\, but still want to support KRM Lexington? Share this email with your network. “Like” and “follow” Blue Grass Community Foundation (@BGCFKY) on Facebook and Instagram and follow the directions in their daily posts for a chance to win $250 Giving Cards for KRM Lexington! \nImportant notes: Beware of the timing on some of these challenges. It is such a bummer to see a donation made at 8:58am that could have qualified for a match that started just two minutes later. Also\, be sure to make your gift on the KRM BGgives page\, not on the KRM website or by check! Only donations made on the BGgives website will qualify for matching funds and prizes. \nLast year\, we challenged you all to donate $25 for 25 years and we were so amazed to see so many people show out for KRM Lexington! Your support at just the right times meant we were able to raise more than we ever have before and we secured an additional $5000 prize for our endowment. Help us make this year even better! \nWe know that the work of welcome cannot be done by one person or one organization\, so this year\, we challenge you to donate and share KRM Lexington’s BGgives page with three people you know. Lastly\, make sure you’re following KRM Lexington on Facebook and Instagram during the challenge to be alerted to other special giving challenges\, extra stories\, videos\, and more. Happy GoodGiving!
