Giving Tuesday Success!

Success!

Thanks to everyone who donated yesterday on Giving Tuesday we were able to almost double our goal and raise $19,087 in just 24 hours! That’s enough to provide the resources for 5,062 hot nutritious meals for homeless men, women, and children.

I can’t thank you enough, whether you donate, volunteer, or offer up prayers of encouragement. Together we are giving food, warmth, and a path home to some of Sacramento’s most vulnerable people.

P.S. If you missed out on Giving Tuesday it’s never to late to get involved. Go to www.sacloaves.org/donate and give today.

GivingTuesday Live AMA with Sister Libby

Sister Libby and I did a live AMA this morning straight from the Loaves & Fishes Dining Room. Give it a watch and learn what Sister Libby’s favorite hobby is.

Then head over to our GivingTuesday page and make a donation. If you give on Facebook before midnight your donation will be matched by Facebook. at https://www.facebook.com/donate/10209962542891626/

If you don’t use Facebook you can give directly on our website at www.sacloaves.org/tuesday

Be A Hunger Hero – Giving Tuesday

Imagine, not having a kitchen to cook dinner for your child, a refrigerator to store a glass of milk, or even a cupboard to keep a snack. Living without a home is a struggle – a struggle to stay warm, a struggle to stay safe, and a struggle just to survive.

On Thanksgiving we gave gratitude for friends, family, and good fortune. Today, on Black Friday, I’m asking you to step up and become a Hunger Hero by creating a Giving Tuesday Fundraiser.

All donations made on Giving Tuesday, November 29th will be matched by Facebook, up to $1,000 per fundraiser.

Here’s how to participate:

  • Go to www.facebook.com/loavesandfishes/fundraisers/ and click the Create a Fundraiser button today. Then just follow the easy steps.
  • Once you’ve created your fundraiser be sure to share it with your friends.
  • You can create the fundraiser anytime, just make sure it ends after Nov 29th to eligible for the matching funds.

We’ve got an ambitious goal to raise $10,000 in 24 hours. That’s enough for over 2,600 hot home-cooked meals for homeless men, women, and children.

Will you step up and be a Hunger Hero and start your fundraiser today?

P.S. Tune in for a live broadcast with Sister Libby on our Facebook page at 11:00am on November 29th for a special question and answer, where you can ask Sister Libby anything!
