Today, I was reminded of a quote by Margaret Mead that says,
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed individuals can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
As a collective group (coordinators, co-coordinators, keyworkers), you go above and beyond the call of duty to make this campaign possible. What’s more, you passionately invite your colleagues into this process — whether that be in planning events, preparing reports, or simply giving to the campaign.
These things represent small but effective steps in making this campaign successful. They demonstrate the intentional work that must be done in fundraising, leading to the fuel that charities need to thrive.
Thank you for your thoughtful work in helping change communities for the better!
Where Are We At?
As of Week 10, $470,681.59 has been received from 3,785 contributors. This is great progress and even puts us slightly ahead of last year!
We are set up well to maybe go over $900,000 total, which is slightly more than last year’s total. To accomplish this, we’ll need to continually and intentionally engage with employees about the campaign. Thank you for your leadership in doing so!

Thank you for your dedication to this statewide effort!
