 Yesterday, I posted the first article of the month to kick off our End-of-Year Appeal. It is an important month for us: even though we rejoice in the grants we have recently received, others have been significantly reduced or discontinued. We have less to work with, and more people coming through our doors in need of help.
Throughout the month, I'll be posting articles and stories about the needs of individuals, couples, and families we serve, and invitations for you to join our efforts to provide help and hope for those in need.
The first invitation I want to extend is exciting to me because, for just a few minutes of your time, it's really easy for you to give us $10!
It's called iGive, and here's how it works:
Between now and January 12th, 2012, iGive.com is giving Catholic Social Service $10 for each new person who joins iGive.com and supports Catholic Social Service. All you have to do is click here, fill out the form and then follow the easy instructions to download an iGive button.
Once the button is installed, you'll see what looks like a little dandelion seed in the top of your browser window, regardless of which browser you use. This is a quick way to access iGive.com in the future. Leave the button installed for at least three months in order for Catholic Social Service to receive the $10 bonus. It would also mean alot if you would share this message with others, in support of us, or even their own favorite charity during this holiday season.
But what IS iGive?
For those who ever shop or buy something online, the iGive.com button automatically directs up to 26% of your purchases at over 900 stores to Catholic Social Service (and/or other charities of your choice); we receive a check from iGive.com each month.
- You don't have to do anything special.
- It never costs you anything
- Online purchases never cost any more than they normally would.
For those who don't shop online, iGive is just a button, and a free $10 donation to Catholic Social Service that we really appreciate!
Thank You!
In today's world, especially during the Christmas season, there are many demands on both our time and our pocketbooks. For that reason, I am often just as humbled as I am grateful for donor generosity and goodwill. It's also why I am excited to extend this invitation that makes it really easy to do a good thing!
