$25,000 In Matching Funds for June 24 Fundraiser
If you're reading this blogpost, there's an excellent chance that somewhere in the past, even if it was way back then, you, or someone you love had a transformational experience at Massanetta Springs.
Right now Massanetta Springs is making decisions with your health and safety in mind. We're also learning and re-learning how to be in ministry with you during this time when we cannot bring people to our campus.
We know that Massanetta will always be a place to come and wrestle with the personal and societal implications of life's challenges.
Our ministry has always been a partnership that depends on the participation and generosity of those who love this place. That will be even more true in 2020. That's why I'm asking you to mark your calendars for June 24th to give to the Massanetta Then. Now. Always. Fundraiser. On that day, your investment will help make sure we remain, "a place for all people to experience God through renewal, discovery, and hospitality" through these challenging times.
Some details are below, and more will be coming in the next few weeks. For now, mark your calendars, and know that your generosity is needed now more than ever. As always, I thank you for all the ways you support Massanetta Springs. Especially by giving to the Massanetta Then. Now. Always Fundraiser on June 24th. Every gift of every size will matter. Your gift will matter.
In Christ,
Rev. Clayton Rascoe
Executive Director
What is the Massanetta Then. Now. Always. Fundraiser?
Through the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Community Foundation's Great Community Give, Massanetta Springs is launching a one day (June 24th) online fundraiser to support our mission in 2020. Every dollar raised will help us get through these challenging times so we can be the place people will need on the other side of this current crisis.
What makes this day special?
Matching Funds - With a new matching donor offering an additional $15,000 in matching funds on June 9th, we now have $25,500 in matching funds on June 24th. This means your gift of $25 becomes $50, $100 becomes $200, and so on. When we raise our first $25,500, we jump to $51,000 raised!
Incentives - The HR Community Foundation raises funds to give to participating non profits to encourage giving. There are cash incentives for most overall donors raised and most individual donors. Last year those who gave to our Fanning the Future Fundraiser helped us raise an additional $6,000 because we had the most individual donors in our category. With your help we'll do that again. As long as you give $10 or more, you count as an individual donor. That's why we really mean it when we say every gift of every size matters.
Ok, my calendar is marked, what now?
That's the most important thing. If you do not already, Follow us on Facebook or Instagram, so you can receive updates. We will post the giving link on our website, Facebook Page, and Instagram Account early in the morning on June 24th. We'll also be sending out an email to everyone.
