Inspiring Kids Preserve, Photo by Doug RidenourCapitol Land Trust has been selected to participate in Give Local! Hosted by the Community Foundation of South Puget Sound, Give Local is a three-week online giving campaign running from October 31 through November 20.
Donations made to Capitol Land Trust through Give Local will be used to make improvements at our Inspiring Kids Preserve so that we can start hosting field trips. The Give Local Campaign is a great opportunity for you to reach out to friends who are interested in getting kids outside because:
• The Inspiring Kids Preserve will be a place where kids can learn, explore, and be restored.
• The Dawkins Charitable Trust is providing a $100,000 Incentive Fund which increases the value of every dollar donated proportionally. For example, if we receive 5 percent of the total donations made during Give Local, we will receive 5 percent of the $100,000 Incentive Fund.
We need your help to get the word out! Here are some ways to do that:
• Promote the campaign by liking, commenting, and sharing CLT’s Facebook posts about Give Local.
• Share our campaign link on your personal social media page with a sentence about why you support Capitol Land Trust.• Send emails to your friends, colleagues, customers, etc. encouraging them to make a gift to Capitol Land Trust during Give Local.
• Make an online donation to our organization at https://givelocal.thecommunityfoundation.com/campaign/inspiring-kids-preserve and tell your friends about it.
• Ask your friends and colleagues to donate to Capitol Land Trust’s campaign
We are so grateful to be part of a community that values the environment, our youth, and philanthropy. Thank you to all our supporters and to the Community Foundation for making it easy to “give where we live.”
