Preview Text: We exceeded our fundraising goal! Thank you!
With your help and the support of 37 amazing donors, we raised slightly over $3000 on Giving Tuesday. We are incredibly grateful.
With these funds, Chicago350 will be able to grow our organization, perform outreach to communities and neighborhoods in Chicago, strengthen our divestment and fossil free campaigns, build coalitions with Environmental and Social Justice groups and further raise awareness of Climate Change in the Chicagoland area.
We are so grateful for the monetary support our donors have provided us on Giving Tuesday!
Beyond the above, we can't thank our friends on Facebook and Twitter enough for giving of your time and shares. The support you provided us surely assisted our efforts.
We set a goal of $2000 and exceeded it far beyond our expectations, making it quite a successful fundraising event. Now Chicago350 can finish our drive toward becoming a registered nonprofit and 501(c)(3). Our efforts have been augmented by everyone's generosity.
Oh, and watch for the forthcoming video of me, Larry, taking a pie to the face on Facebook and Twitter. I have located a pie maker and the purchase shall be made. I think Lemon Meringue or Banana Cream pie shall suffice. ...And my son is really ready to do the deed of smashing the pie into my face. He can't wait!
Thank You,
Larry Coble
