Three reasons why you should you consider donating to MMBay on giving Tuesday. 1. MMBay connects driven yet underserved high school students with the resources they need to graduate from the nation's most selective colleges. 2. MMBay is effective - on a national average only 3% of low income students go to selective colleges, but 75% of our students attend selective colleges, 100% of our students enroll at a 4-year college, and 100% persist to graduation. 3. Your gift impacts a deserving student - we invest $10k in each student to support a three-year journey that has the power to change the trajectory of their life.

Colorado's day of giving is coming up - not to be confused with the national Giving Tuesday that happened yesterday - and I'd like to bring to your attention my favorite non-profit! CO-LABS is a non-profit consortium of federal research laboratories, institutions, universities, colleges, businesses, and economic development organizations that provide financial and in-kind support for programs that promote the retention and expansion of Colorado's scientific resources. Keeping our scientific research labs and institutes funded is a matter of pragmatism and national security as much as it is a matter of pride and inspiration. The mission of CO-LABS is to support federal labs and keep them funded. This is so important now as these organizations are constantly threatened by budget cuts and downsizing, thereby hindering their ability to produce cutting-edge research for the public. Science can't be put on pause and years of research can be compromised without consistent funding. If you care about Colorado science as much as I do, consider donating to CO-LABS by December 5th. There are matches available and donations of $125 and above are automatically enrolled with an annual Individual Membership which adds you to their invitations to laboratory tours and other events. #givingtuesday #nonprofitfundraising #sciencematters #federalfunding

Are you “likable” enough to be a fundraiser? Being likable as a fundraiser goes beyond simply asking for donations; it's about building trust and rapport with donors. By genuinely connecting with them, understanding their motivations, and communicating effectively, fundraisers can foster positive relationships that lead to long-term support. Additionally, demonstrating the tangible impact of donations reinforces the trust donors place in the organization, making them more likely to continue supporting its mission. Overall, being likable as a fundraiser involves authenticity, empathy, and a commitment to making a meaningful difference in the lives of both donors and those the organization serves. #valuablevisits #philanthropy #majorgifts

One of the projects that is worth investing in.
