On Tuesday, May 1, GlobalGiving, the international online marketplace for fundraising, will begin a 12 day Mother's Day Tribute Card Campaign.
As you know, we began our affiliation with GlobalGiving in 2009 to raise funds for our B'nai Mitzvah Mission to Israel. That initiative was very successful and Cedar Village now has seven projects on GlobalGiving:
Enriching Lives of Elders (to benefit the Harkavy Fund by providing special concerts, programs, and classes for all of our residents)
Opening Minds Through Art (to provide materials for our very successful Opening Minds Through Art program for residents with dementia)
Keep Victims of Elder Abuse Safe (to provide personal care items, clothing and other items for our seniors recuperating in the Shalom Center for Elder Abuse Prevention)
Interfaith Mission to Israel (to help a resident with expenses such as a passport, sponsor bus transportation, sponsor mission t-shirt and bag)
Beginning at 12:01 a.m. EDT on May 1st through 11:59 pm on Sunday, May 13th GlobalGiving is giving away $500 to the top 10 projects with the most donors who make donations as gifts.
Thank you in advance for helping to enrich the lives of our residents, make their dreams come true, open their minds through art, keep victims of elder abuse safe, expand health services, ensure the highest quality end of life care and share the vision of an Interfaith Mission to Israel.
