A Dollar for Dollar Match

We are delighted to announce that every new gift or new pledge to Annual Giving 2011-12, Stretch for Success, will be matched dollar for dollar up to a total of $50,000.      

The campaign got off to a record breaking start this fall thanks to the generosity of the entire Lowell community. By January 15, 2012, the campaign had reached the $400,000 goal for this year’s program, and now, every additional dollar raised will support Building on Success, the capital campaign for the Middle School expansion project.

To keep the momentum going and to raise as much as possible for Building on Success, a few inspired and very committed Lowell families who had already made significant multi-year commitments to Building on Success, as well as their own gifts to Annual Giving 2011-12, came together to challenge the Lowell community. They each dug a little deeper to collectively pledge an additional $50,000 to match new gifts and new pledges to the campaign dollar for dollar.  

Make a gift now to help us take advantage of this extraordinary opportunity to add $100,000 to the capital campaign and help ensure that the total raised for the Middle School expansion project exceeds $1,500,000, the half-way point, by June 30:  

If you haven’t already made a gift or pledge, this is an excellent opportunity to double the impact of your gift. 

If you have already made a commitment to the Building on Success campaign or the Stretch for Success campaign, please consider your current circumstances to see if you can stretch a bit more.  

Every new gift or new pledge paid by June 30 will qualify for the match. All donors will be recognized for supporting Annual Giving 2011-2012 and the Building on Success capital campaign.
