[Nfbofsc] Midlands Gives

[Steve & Shannon Cook]

Hi All, 

 

Tomorrow (5/7/19) is the day you can assist a non-profit with your donation!
We would greatly appreciate your donation to Rocky Bottom Retreat and
Conference Center!  Your donation to Rocky Bottom goes toward the operation
and maintenance of the camp.  Thanks in advance for your donation!

 

Midlands Gives fund raising program.  

              What is Midlands Gives?

              Hosted by Central Carolina Community Foundation, Midlands
Gives is an 18-hour online giving event that brings the region together as
one community, raising money and awareness for local nonprofits in 11
Midlands counties.  

              When is Midlands Gives? 

              Midlands Gives will take place online on Tuesday, May 7, 2019,
from 6:00 am to 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time.  

              How does it work?

              Central Carolina Community Foundation has set up an online
giving platform at MidlandsGives.org with searchable profiles of
participating nonprofits. All donations will be processed through this
website, which allows nonprofits and donors to track the giving on May 7th
via the site's leaderboards.

Conference Center, click on the below link.

Again this year, Jennifer Bazer and staff from the Successful Transitions
program will be stationed in several locations around the Columbia area
(downtown East Bay Deli on Main St., Crossing Deli in Northeast Columbia and
the West Columbia Chick-fil-a on Augusta Rd.) on May 7, to raise funds
through Midland Gives to assist Rocky Bottom.  If you would like to assist
Jennifer and the staff of Successful Transitions at one of these locations,
you can contact Jennifer Bazer at (803) 960-9977 for further information.
If you are uncomfortable using a computer to make a donation or do not have
one, you can come by or call the Federation Center, (803) 254-3777 on
Tuesday, May 7, and we will assist you with your donation.  We will also be
having a "watch party" with refreshments at the Federation Center on May 7,
from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. for those individuals who would like to make a
donation to Rocky Bottom through Midland Gives.  We will be especially
working hard to raise the most unique contributions between 12 noon and 1:00
p.m.  The non-profit organization who receives the most unique contributions
during this hour will also receive an additional $2,500 for their group.
Also, the six state board district and state wide divisions will be
competing among themselves to see who can secure the most unique
contributions for Rocky Bottom.  A trophy will be presented to the district
or division who secures the highest number of unique contributions during
Midlands Gives on May 7.  I am asking all chapter presidents to please work
closely with your district board representative and share this information
with your members.  I strongly encourage all of us to make a concerted
effort to spread this information to local businesses, neighbors, friends,
and family and help to financially support Rocky Bottom and the NFB of SC
with this wonderful fund raising opportunity!
