Giving Tuesday – Peer to Peer

You know building a strong community doesn’t happen in isolation. We all need a little help from our friends. So… Invite your network to pump it up together kicking off on Giving Tuesday, December 3-31!

Your impact will be doubled with matching funds from The Coleman Foundation through December 31.

You could snag some awesome prizes!

Follow this link to create your own personal landing page (this is an important step so we know who won!). You could also set up a fundraiser on Facebook.

Those who fundraise the most will receive a prize:

1st place: $50 at the L’Arche Chicago Swag Shop + $25 Lou Malnati’s gift certificate
2nd place: $25 at the L’Arche Chicago Swag Shop
3rd place: $15 at the L’Arche Chicago Swag Shop
Any page raising more than $25: keychain crafted by our very own Tim Stone

Best of all, you and your network will be helping bridge the gap between state funding and the real cost of supporting a BIG life for L’Arche Chicago’s 15 core members.
