The Feinstein Foundation has once again challenged donors to give generously this holiday season. To promote philanthropy, the Foundation is giving away $100,000 to non-profit agencies and schools in the state, including äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾.
Donations made to the Fund for äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ will get some of the Feinstein $100,000 added to it. Non-profit agencies and schools using the Feinstein annual challenge in the past have reported increased donations.
The Feinstein $100,000 will be divided among all the non-profits that promote the opportunity. The offer is not a matching gift program and donors will not receive matching gift credit.
The bottom line: Any donation made to the Fund for äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ between November 1 and December 31 will get some of the Feinstein $100,000. More donations will mean more money for äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾.
The Fund for äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ provides critical support for students, faculty, and alumni programs. Contributions to the fund provide flexible funding that can be put to immediate use. There are a variety of areas that donors can direct their gifts. For more details or to make a gift securely online, go to advance.uri.edu/giveonline.
Donors can also make a check payable to the äçÐÄvlogÃâ·ÑBÕ¾ with a note designating how the gift should be credited and mail to P.O. Box 1820, Kingston, R.I. 02881. For more information, contact Sarah Howard at 401-874-2438.
