The FAWCO Foundation Matching Grant for Target 5: Awesome Blossoms
Due to the tremendous generosity of The de Groot Foundation, The FAWCO Foundation is currently offering a matching grant program of up to $10,000 for donations made to Target 5: Awesome Blossoms. Each club is eligible to have up to $1,000 in donations matched. When the funds are gone, the matching grant will end.
How does it work?
If a club donates $500, that club will be credited on the Club Donor Wall with a $1,000 donation. If a club donates $1,000, they will be credited with a $2,000 donation.
A club can make several small donations and have them matched until they reach a total donation level of $1,000 as long as matching funds remain.
Let’s keep up the great work we’ve already started for Awesome Blossoms and really make your club donation count!
