Colorado Gives Day

Friday is the traditional start to the holiday shopping season, and here's the best deal in town – a gift to the Bell Policy Center as part of Colorado Gives Day.

Just look at the return on investment for some of our work:

Colorado Gives Day is one week from today – Tuesday, Dec. 6 – and we hope you'll make your year-end donation to the Bell.

Colorado Gives Day is a great way to support the Bell:

• 100 percent of your donation comes to the Bell.
• When you donate online at any time on Dec. 6, the value of your donation will be partially matched by the FirstBank Incentive Fund.

Giving is easy – it's all online. We'll send you a reminder, and on Dec. 6, we'll post the links you'll need to help us make Colorado a state of opportunity for all.

Just a quick reminder that Wednesday is Colorado Gives Day -- your chance to support the Bell and help grow Colorado philanthropy.

All of your donation – and more! – will go to the Bell. That's because the Community First Foundation is covering processing fees, and FirstBank has contributed $250,000 to an Incentive Fund that will be distributed proportionally based on all donations received on Colorado Gives Day.

The Bell Policy Center is participating in the first-ever Colorado Gives Day on Dec. 8, a 24-hour effort to increase philanthropy through online giving. We ask you to please consider making a donation to the Bell.

The goal of Colorado Gives Day, presented by FirstBank and the Community First Foundation, is to raise $1 million in one day for hundreds of Colorado charities and non-profit organizations.
