We are less than one month away from East Texas Giving Day and the Northeast Texas Community College Foundation is asking for your support! While East Texas Giving Day isn’t until April 30th, you can give early online at www.easttexasgivingday.org/ntccfoundation starting Monday, April 8th. NTCC has been the top fundraiser for this exciting regional event for the last two years and we would love to keep that momentum going!
“East Texas Giving Day has grown each year and it has become a fun tradition at NTCC. We've already had numerous student organizations set up Celebration Pages to make it easy to support their cause and we can't wait for early giving to start," Nita May, NTCC Director of Development, said. "While we are planning lots of fun activities for April 30th, you do not have to wait until East Texas Giving Day to give."
NTCC has been awarded a $7,500 matching grant from the Burt and Nancy Marans Charitable Fund, so all gifts up to that amount will be matched at 100%. Other gifts may be matched by additional grants. Here are a few ways you can help support the cause:
Give online starting Monday, April 8th. Even small gifts are appreciated and every dollar goes directly toward helping students.
If you have a specific cause you’d like to support, please include that information in the “In Honor Of” section when you check out.
Consider creating a Celebration Page supporting the NTCC Foundation. These are free to setup and allow you to customize your own fundraising goal to share with your friends. Here are links to the Celebration Pages that are already created and ready for donations: CARE Center, Communities In Schools (CIS), Emergency Aid Fund, Sigma Kappa Delta, Phi Theta Kappa, PTA Association, & Summer Success Program.
