Support Lemon Bay Conservancy and Triple Your Impact!
The 2024 Giving Challenge is now complete. Thank you to everyone who contributed to Lemon Bay Conservancy!
We received just over $11,000 in donations from 130 donors. Those donations will be matched by approximately $9,500 from The Patterson Foundation and $10,000 from our anonymous LBC donor, meaning LBC will receive over $30,000 from this special event!
Thank you to the Community Foundation of Sarasota County for hosting this event and to The Patterson Foundation for their matching funds program!
From noon-to-noon, April 9-10, Lemon Bay Conservancy (LBC) will join 650+ area non-profits participating in the Giving Challenge. During this 24-hour window, you have a unique opportunity to leverage your support for LBC!
Donations to LBC from $25 to $100 will be matched 1:1 by The Patterson Foundation and 1:1 by an anonymous LBC donor[1]. So, your $25 gift can becomes $75 or your $100 gift can become $300.
The matching funds apply to each individual donor or company. So, the 2:1 match will apply to donations up to $100 from each family member!
Donations must be made online, via credit or debit card, during the 24-hour Giving Challenge. If more than one individual is donating from a family, please use separate names, emails, and credit/debit cards to ensure that each donor will have their gift fully matched.
