As you may know, we are smack dab in the middle of our Friends Feeding Foodie crowdfunding campaign. This campaign is a brand new kind of fundraising and outreach effort for the Friends of Mascoma Foundation. We are pleased to report we have surpassed our goal of $5,000 and are well on our way to reaching our stretch goal of $10,000. So far we have raised $8,500 with the help of 39 donors! We had two matching opportunities from Holly West and Kate Plumley Stewart and AJ Stewart. Both matches incentivized donors and the matches were fulfilled in just a few days time. Our local emergency service organizations stepped up and we received funding from the Canaan Firefighters Association, the Enfield Fast Squad, and the Enfield Firefighters Association. Many local businesses have also shown their support by donating directly to the campaign or by providing rewards including, State Farm Insurance Agent Michael Estrada, Stearns Septic Service, Proctor’s General Store, Jake’s Market and Deli, Marshall’s Garage, Co-op Food Stores, Whaleback Mountain, Shaker Valley Auto and Tire, Upper Valley Line-X and Dyer's Welding & Fabrication, and MTD.
Did we mention the rewards? There are so many GREAT rewards left! Head over to http://c-fund.us/nwf to learn about and contribute to our Friends Feeding Foodie campaign. We have $480 in matching funds left to raise—don’t leave money on the table! Thank you Steve and Jane Plumley for sponsoring our latest match opportunity. On Giving Tuesday we are challenging the community to donate in $5 increments in that 24 hour period—Five Dollars for Friends Feeding Foodie—any amount given in $5 increments will be matched up to $500 from another private donor.
No gift is too small and every dollar gets us closer to our goal! If you have already given—thank you! If not, there is still time. We also hope you will share the information about our campaign with someone else who might be interested in supporting our efforts! Thank you to Vital Communities and The Local Crowd for selecting us for this wonderful opportunity.
