GOD IS PROVIDING!
Recently a group of donors have committed to a matching gift. They will give $1 for every $3 we raise, up to $225,000. Therefore every dollar you donate will increase by an additional 33%. This is a HUGE blessing!
In order to take full advantage of this gift, every six months we must raise an additional $75,000 and we will then receive a check for $25,000. This will keep us on track to have the full $900,000. WE MET OUR FIRST TWO DEADLINES AND ARE NOW UP TO $200,000! THE NEXT GOAL IS $275,000 BY June 30th. (PLEASE READ SPECIAL UPDATE BELOW)
**SPECIAL UPDATE**
Fundraising has gone well so far, thanks to our generous matching donors. Currently, First Glance has raised a total of $240,000 and we will need to raise a total of $275,000 in order to receive our full matching donation of $25,000. This means we need to raise $35,000 by the end of June.
However, we would really like to finish phase 1 by the end of June since we are so close to having this phase of the project completed. We need an additional $35,000 to finish phase 1 completely which will still keep us over $100,000 under budget. Not only will finishing phase 1 include the remainder of the renovations for the Teen Moms area and our offices, it will also allow us to pay off the facility completely. Finishing phase 1 will allow us to use our facility in its entirety and to focus our time and energy on connecting our students to Christ.
We are asking you to join us and to invite your friends as we push to raise $70,000 by the end of June to hit our $25,000 match deadline and to complete phase 1 almost 6 months ahead of schedule and $100,000 less than planned.
