The Great Give. $400K and going strong, won't you help us reach our goal?

OUR MESSAGE

Face it, we live in a rich area! I am not talking about wealth or dollars. I am not even talking about that fancy BMW that cut me off this morning on Forest Drive!

I'm talking about the hundreds of non-profits that add so much to our collective community.

Very few of us have all that we need in life and the non-profits in Anne Arundel County fill the missing needs. It may be the need to volunteer or find a place to donate money. Or, it may be a need for food or shelter.

Literacy, food, shelter, addiction, ecology, medicine, volunteerism, the list goes on.

Now, for the third year, nearly 200 non-profits need your help on ONE DAY

to give to the Great Give.

Personally, I support several non-profits throughout the year, but during this 24 hours, I will be donating a few hundred dollars and spreading it out to many others. With many donating a little..we can make a HUGE difference!

Won't you join me and give a little..or a lot?

All the best--

Less than 8 hours to go!

In 16 hours (mostly while the world slept) we raised over $400,000! Impressive...right?

Well, there is still work to do. Our goal is $750K and we have less than 8 hours to do it.

Take a look at the participating charities and think about the good they do every day of the year despite budget cuts, reduced giving, and more need.

The concept here is simple--find a cause (or causes) that you support and give a little. $15 goes a LONG way. $20 goes even further. $100 makes you a superstar!

I am confident we can hit $750K, but I need YOUR help.

Please donate online today before 6pm and be sure to tell your friends who may not know about it. Share or forward this email, talk about it on Facebook and Twitter!

Together, we can do this!

DONATE NOW

PS--remember this is a 24 hour effort that runs through 6pm tonight. You cannot donate after that time! So do it now--go on, click that big blue button up there ^, you know you want to!
