Thanks to you, we did it!

Community, thank you for coming through! It is because of you we surpassed our fundraising goal for five deserving women warriors!

Your donations are in the works. We are assembling each women warrior’s care packages, and they will be delivered to them by no later than early January 2021. These care packages will contain monetary gift cards to help with essential needs and individualized items for their well-being and the well-being of their families. Additionally, your gift for your donation is also in the works and should arrive by early January 2021 too.

We are only as strong as our community and this campaign couldn’t be more indicative. Your encouraging words pierce deeply, especially in 2020.

Mahalo Community,

In the nonprofit world, it is the time of year to appeal for your kind donation. The end of the year is historically the most successful time to fundraise and close the calendar year in black (net revenue positive or debt free). Lamentably, for many nonprofits it is the breaking point whether they will stay open or close indefinitely. Compounded with this reality, Covid-19 has disrupted the fiscal promise for too many.

2020 remains a devastating year of loss. Livelihoods are in disarray, inequities widening, and the former capacity and joy to contribute to an annual giving tradition stifled. After brainstorming what our nonprofit’s end-of-the-year campaign will focus on, it was without a question, to uplift and to pay it forward to those affected. For them, for humanity, we had to. Hence, these individuals and families are the catalyst for our fundraising campaign that just launched, Sol Sisters Solful Giving – Uplifting Women Warriors.

As part of the global movement to give known as Giving Tuesday, I set my heart into authoring and developing this campaign, which honors five deserving women warriors. I am deeply invested in each of them, and their incredible stories of loss and strength will impel you to act too. 

Therefore, join us in #UpliftingWomenWarriors during this unprecedented challenging time and please share this campaign far and wide using the hashtag #UpliftingWomenWarriors.

Thank you for caring,️
Jenny & your Sol Sisters Community

P.S. Did you know that your donation to us (to nonprofits in general) is a tax benefit to you? It is a deduction on your taxes and with the CARES Act it is easier to get a tax deduction for donations made in 2020. Learn more about this benefit via this recent New York Times article. It’s a win, win, win!
