As you might be aware, Colorado Gives Day is coming up on Tuesday, December 9, which is the single largest day of giving in the state of Colorado each year! We know there are a lot of great organizations you can support with your hard earned dollars, so consider five of the top reasons why donating to Extreme Community Makeover is important this holiday season.
5 - The eight neighborhoods where ECM works have been visited by the helping hands of
3,720 volunteers who helped complete 251 projects in 2014
4 - ECM makes things happen through volunteers who have invested $467,299.25 in
volunteer labor into some of Denver's most underserved neighborhoods this year alone
3 - According to residents assisted in 2014, 75% would not have been able to complete
these projects on their own, without the help of ECM volunteers
2 - Since ECM began in 2008, 20,995 volunteers have been mobilized to impact Denver neighborhoods through those willing to demonstrate how to be a good neighbor
1 - In the words of Ginger, an older woman assisted by ECM who has cancer and lives alone,
"I thank God every day for Extreme Community Makeover"
You can schedule your donation for Colorado Gives Day today or give on Tuesday, December 9th
Thank you in advance for your support of Extreme Community Makeover as together we make a difference "one block at a time"!
