We want to announce the launch of Making the Grade’s #GivingTuesday initiative: Please Choose Us! This giving season is an incredibly important period for our organization. We are thrilled to have so many exciting projects just waiting to take shape.
We need your help though! #GivingTuesday is a great opportunity to maximize your gifts. We will all be doing much of our holiday shopping online this year... let us make it count!
SHOPPING
We know that everyone is getting ready for the holiday season. Here are a few shopping opportunities that will fill our bank account without costing you, the shopper, any additional money!
Amazon
Shop for gifts at smile.amazon.com/ch/46-3448487 to generate donations for Making the Grade-Hope for African Youth. This opportunity is available all year and once you set us as your charity, you can just shop knowing that every penny you spend, will benefit our students as well! Follow this link to set up this FREE option - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/chpf/homepage?q=46-3448487&orig=%2F&ie=UTF-8
Shop online and get a percentage for MTG by going through any listed store on their platform. According to IGive’s website, they have given $9,937,253.37 to charities to date. Choose Making the Grade: Hope for African Youth as your charity.
The way this works is you go to the igive or goodshop website. These sites act as a portal into your favorite online stores. You are charged no additional money for anything, same websites and prices. YOU shop and THEY send us money!
PayPal
Go to your paypal account and choose Making the Grade: Hope for African Youth as your charity and they will donate 1 dollar per purchase during the holiday shopping season.
DONATIONS
Facebook is matching donations up to 7 million dollars on #GivingTuesday, December 1, 2020. The match opens at 8 am EST (5 am California time) and the match is reached within 8 seconds, so anyone trying for a match needs to be online and set up to push “send” at 8 am.
PLEASE CHOOSE US! You can donate directly on our page or any other fundraiser that is set up for giving Tuesday.
Each person can donate up to 20 K to a charity, but only in increments of $2,499 per donation.
All of these are remarkable opportunities for us to maximize our efforts!
With your help we can reach our goal of $60K by December 1st!
The gift of education and providing a future for our students is priceless. Check out our website to learn more of our projects Nitsu and Gojjo.
It has been an extraordinary year for everyone. If it has taught us anything, it is the value of our loved ones, our stability, and education.
Please take a moment to set up any and all of these opportunities; link up AmazonSmiles to your account (just one quick step!), set up Paypal, and prepare for Facebook's Dec 1st matching opportunity!
‘Tis the season of giving! #GivingTuesday is a great opportunity to do so!

You’ll be THANKful you did!
