Double the Value of Your Donation: Make a Pledge!

Thanks to the generosity of a private foundation that has asked to remain anonymous (for now), YOUR PLEDGES TO MODEST NEEDS ARE BEING MATCHED, DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR, THROUGHOUT 2008!

What does this mean to you? Simple! It means that in 2008, your 'small change' will be working twice as hard at Modest Needs for hard-working individuals and families who need our help to beat the cycle of poverty once and for all!

Thanks to this matching grant, throughout 2008 at Modest Needs:

a $10 weekly pledge is worth $20 a week
a $100 monthly pledge is worth $200 a month
a $1000 annual pledge is worth $2000 this year

And so forth, with NO LIMITS OF ANY KIND, until we've qualified to receive the entire matching grant of $500,000.00!

Best of all, under this matching grant initiative, your pledge to Modest Needs is being matched, not just once or twice, but every time your pledge is made!

In other words, a $100 monthly pledge at Modest Needs isn't worth just an extra $100. It's worth an extra $100 EACH AND EVERY MONTH, for all of 2008.

We need YOUR help to qualify for the entire half-million dollar matching grant. Right now, with a large matching grant at stake, a pledge of any size has more power to change lives at Modest Needs than ever before.

You can create a pledge of any size you like using our online donation form. The whole process will take you less than two minutes. And you can rest easy knowing that, at Modest Needs, your personal information is protected by Bank of America and Authorize.net - the leaders in online security.

Especially now, when your 'small change' worth so much to so many, we appreciate your generous support of hard-working people with 'modest needs.'

Without you, this work would not be possible.

**Please note: Any contributions received in excess of the amount necessary to receive the complete matching grant listed above will go into our general fund for use where needed most, unless a donor has specifically designated his or her contributions to either our Self-Sufficiency Grant Program, our Back to Work Grant Program, or our Independent Living Grant program. In those cases, such funds will be used as directed by the individual donor.
