Interesting statistics as we quickly approach the back half of 2024: - 12% of all nonprofit giving happens within the last few days of the year - 28% of nonprofits raise up to 50% of their annual donations during year-end campaigns - 30% of all nonprofit donations happen during the month of December How do you support your preferred charities? If you participate in Giving Tuesday, what is your motivation? My motivation is the great organizations I get to support through donating to charity teams like Imerman Angels. This year I'm starting Giving Tuesday early by kicking off fundraising for the 2024 Chicago Marathon via Team Imerman. Their mission is to provide comfort and understanding for all cancer fighters, survivors, previvor, and caregivers through a personalized one-on-one connection with someone who has been there. Imerman Angels envisions a world where cancer is not a solitary experience.

‼️INTERACTION WITH THIS POST CAN SAVE LIVES‼️ Like all of you who are reading this, my life has been directly impacted by the trials of cancer. I have watched countless individuals in my life go through the battle, including aunts, uncles, grandparents, close friends, classmates, teachers, members of my church congregation, and the list could go on. While some still battle, others are in remission, and others have been lost, I care deeply about limiting the impacts of this treacherous disease. I have decided to participate in the Pan-Mass Challenge, an 85 mile bike ride from Boston to Cape Cod, as a means of raising funds for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute with team L.E.K. Consulting. This is especially meaningful to me, because funds raised for this organization go towards treatment costs, not just towards general research. Your willingness to donate can have a direct impact on the lives of those affected, and I am pushing myself to a new physical limit to show support for those who are pushed to their physical limit without the choice. The ride is on August 2nd, and I have set the goal to raise $5,000. Every dollar counts, and 100% of donations go directly towards treatment costs and research at the Dana-Farbor Cancer Institute. Whether you are willing to donate, like this post, or comment for reach, I appreciate any of those willing to further this effort and support those who battle cancer. Learn more about the ride, why I ride, and how to donate:
