Wide Generosity, Deep Gratitude
March 3, 2015
Kinbrace supporters showed amazing generosity in the closing months of 2014, giving an unprecedented $83,000 ($40,000 more than last year) to support refugees through the Kinbrace mandate.
October’s Ride for Refuge fundraiser was a spinning success where 9 teams (84 riders), supported by 240 donors, raised $19,390, just short of our $20,000 goal. Thanks to each of you who so generously participated: team captains, riders, and donors.
Kinbrace’s major donors rallied around a significant and unexpected funding cut in November 2014, providing financial gifts that became the backbone of the $30,000 match campaign launched in December 2014. Campaign giving exceeded the goal, and a total of $63,985 was raised ($33,985 donated + $30,000 match)!
All of this generosity goes directly to creating a world of welcome, a community of belonging, and a life of opportunity for refugees near and far.
On behalf of refugees impacted by Kinbrace, the Kinbrace Board of Directors, staff, and volunteers: deep gratitude to everyone who generously gave.
