Clinton Foundation Launches Matching Gift Campaign
Posted by Amy Wachler, Communications Associate on July 31, 2009
During the month of July, The Madera Group has collaborated with the William J. Clinton Foundation to launch an online matching gift campaign. For every donation received, President Clinton will match each dollar through a personal gift of up to $150,000 until July 31st at midnight. The campaign has been promoted through a series of special messages sent from President Clinton, staff member Charmaine Pattinson in Zambia, and long-time Clinton Foundation supporter Barbara Streisand.
President Clinton has personally donated nearly $2 million over the years to support his foundation. As CEO Bruce Lindsey noted today, “This is an exciting fundraising opportunity for the Clinton Foundation. Our need is great, and our efforts are more important than ever as we work to combat climate change, health pandemics like HIV/AIDS and malaria, and extreme poverty.”
The campaign has already raised a significant portion of its goal, and there’s still time to donate and have your gift make double the impact! Please support the Clinton Foundation’s Matching Gift Campaign today and help make a difference in the lives of people around the globe.
