Give where you live on Colorado Gives Day!

On Wednesday, December 8th, you can increase the impact of your donation by giving to Denver Urban Gardens through GivingFirst.org.

Colorado Gives Day is a new initiative to increase philanthropy in Colorado through online giving. Presented by Community First Foundation and FirstBank, Colorado Gives Day will take place during a 24 hour period starting at 12 a.m. on Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Donations will be accepted through the website GivingFirst.org, with a goal of raising $1 million in one day for Colorado nonprofits.

The Incentive Fund increases the value of every dollar donated!

How it works:

The Colorado Gives Day Incentive Fund is a pool of dollars created to leverage donations made to nonprofits through GivingFirst.org on Colorado Gives Day. FirstBank contributed $250,000 as a lead gift to the fund, and additional dollars will be solicited from Colorado businesses and organizations in the months leading up to Colorado Gives Day. The Incentive Fund will be proportionally allocated across all donations received on Colorado Gives Day, increasing the value of each individual gift. Each donation received during the 24 hour period starting at 12 a.m. on December 8 will receive a proportionate share of the Incentive Fund—regardless of the time of day it is received.
