06 Oct Moundridge CF to host Match Day November 6
Match Day on Thursday, November 6 holds an incredible opportunity for six participating organizations. On that day, Moundridge Community Foundation will match donations made to their endowment funds giving each organization an opportunity at $3000 in matching funds.
Here’s how Match Day works:
- Come to the event and make a donation.
Date: Thursday, November 6
Time: 7 am – 6 pm
Place: Northridge Community Center, Moundridge
- The 2014 match pool of $15,000 is provided by the Moundridge Community Foundation.
- The match pool will be divided in proportion to the total amount raised on November 6. For example, if $50,000 is raised and our organization brought in 10% of the total donations, we will receive $1,500 to use for immediate needs or add to the endowment fund. ($3,000 max per organization – prizes are outside this limit)
- Minimum donation amount to be matched is $25. There is no limit on the amount of funding donors may contribute to our organization’s endowed fund.
- Cash, checks and credit cards will be accepted. Only gifts made on November 6 will count toward match day totals.
- We’re also eligible for prizes if we have the largest number of donors giving during designated times throughout the day. Call us for details. Prize funds are made possible by Mid-Kansas Credit Union and The Citizens State Bank.
