This is the time of year when all of us are counting our blessings and thinking about ways we can share our good fortune with people who are not quite as lucky as we have been. This is at least part of the reason that more than 30% of all donations to charitable causes come between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, Lost Voices is finishing one of the best years we’ve ever had in terms of the children we were able to reach. We conducted six programs, including an amazing week of creativity and healing with the boys at the Methodist Children’s Home Society for the first time!
As we head into 2022, we’re hoping to nearly double that outreach. We have already secured grant or foundation support for several programs, but the vast majority of the dollars that make our work possible come from individual donations by folks like you. And as I said before, more than 30% of those dollars will come in during the next few weeks.
That’s why Lost Voices Board member Don Soenen has agreed to match every donation, dollar-for-dollar, that we receive between Giving Tuesday on November 30 and Sunday, January 2. This means that your gift during this holiday season will help twice as many boys and girls find hope and healing through the power of music! To make a matched donation, you can visit the Donation Page to make a donation on the Website, or go to our #Giving Tuesday and Holiday Fundraiser on Facebook.
You can also go to Facebook and create your own Facebook Fundraiser for Lost Voices! In just a few minutes you can tell your friends why you support Lost Voices and invite them to help out too. And every dollar your friends give to your fundraiser, from now through Sunday, January 2, will be matched!
There is another way you can help. The more people who know about Lost Voices, the more kids we can reach out to. Please use one of the Share This links below and forward this article, or any other pages you see here on the Website, to everybody you know. You will be amazed at how many people will thank you for introducing them to the Lost Voices kids.
So please don’t forget Lost Voices when you’re thinking about how to share your blessings during this Holiday season. As always, we are deeply grateful for your support!
