If you work for the Post Office, or other state and federal institutions, you can support us through the Combined Charities Campaign http://www.combinedcharitiescampaign.org/
More and more companies allow donor choice as part of their annual workplace fundraising campaigns. Employees at Abbott Labs, Allstate, Microsoft, Schwarz, Sargent & Lundy, LLC and GE have used donor-option to support Cabrini Connections and the Tutor/Mentor Connection for many years.
If your company allows donor choice, you can support us from any city in the country. Please choose this as a way to help fund the work we do. Please encourage friends to do the same.
Dollars raised from workplace fund raising are among the most important dollars any charity can have. A small donation of $2 per week, less than a cup of Starbuck’s coffee, can add up to a $100 annual donation. If ten associates do this, that’s a $1,000 donation. These are flexible dollars that can pay rent, hire staff, or provide bus passes to events for kids.
Most workplace fund raising campaigns will start in September. If you send this information to friends, family, co-workers, etc. you can help mobilize an army of workplace donors who support Cabrini Connections and Tutor/Mentor Connection. This will help us serve the teens at Cabrini Connections, while helping us support a growing number of tutor/mentor programs in all parts of Chicago and in other cities.
This is a way EVERYONE can help create paths to careers for inner city kids!
Of course, you can also send your donation directly to Cabrini Connections, or visit the donor page at http://www.cabriniconnections.net to make an on-line donation. Every gift helps us make a difference in the lives of inner city kids. We thank you.
