Matching Campaign Fundraising Testimonial from Spring 2023

Speaking Up for America/Indivisible, an Indivisible group in Florida, participated in the matching campaign for the first time in the spring of 2023, and to great success! Here’s what they had to say:

"We are so excited! We are participating in your fundraising matching- never having fund raised in our over 6 years of existence. Our goal was $500 and we met that in 48 hours! We were thrilled! We will continue to fundraise- it will be nice to have money to pay for snacks, stamps and supplies- things {we} usually reach into our pockets for. And we now have enough money to complete our voter registration badge project.

Thanks so much for this opportunity. It gave us the encouragement to try to fundraise, something we had always hesitated to do. Our members showed us how much they support us, which also feels good.”

Susan Foley, Speaking Up for America/Indivisible

Here’s what Indivisible Northern Nevada had to say about how they reached the $500 maximum matching amount:

“Indivisible Northern Nevada distributes an electronic weekly newsletter that includes requests for donations. We have highlighted the spring matching funds drive in the last few weeks. 

This week, we included information on how much we have raised thus far, and described the types of activities the funding supports.”
