The Giving Challenge is an exciting 24-hour online giving event that connects 700+ nonprofit organizations with passionate donors and community members to support diverse causes and create enduring impact in Sarasota, Manatee, Charlotte, and DeSoto counties. The online event is presented by the Community Foundation of Sarasota County, with giving strengthened by The Patterson Foundation.
The 24-hour event takes place April 26-27, 2022, 12pm-12pm.
On Tuesday, April 26, 4:30-6:30pm, Glasser/Schoenbaum will host a campus-wide event to encourage support for all 17 campus partners during the Giving Challenge.
There will be food and refreshments, music, and an atmosphere of celebration to bring our human services network together with donors, turning the online donation into an interactive experience. All are welcome to attend, including campus staff, board members and donors, volunteers, and supporters of all kinds. This celebration of nonprofits serving our most vulnerable residents is a great way to get involved in the 2022 Giving Challenge!
Our mission is to connect, support, and sustain a network of human services for a stronger community. We are hosting this event to provide outreach, awareness, and an in-person fundraising opportunity for our tenant partner agencies, as an added benefit for their Giving Challenge campaigns.
There are 17 nonprofits on the Campus of Caring, and multiple Giving Challenge goals! Donations can support any and all partner agencies in their critically important human service missions through their online Giving Challenge campaigns. Let's make sure the Campus of Caring agencies reach their goals!
Real estate is one of the greatest costs in a business budget. Our partnership with The Glasser/Schoenbaum Human Services Center allows more money to go towards our mission. And what better place to house our office than on a campus with nineteen other outreach agencies.
Collaboration is key to the success of our work. The Campus of Caring is a unique space where we can easily join forces with other agencies to make the best use of our resources and maximize our community impact. The affordable rent allows us to allocate more funds to our mission of transforming the lives of students and their families.
As a small organization with a staff of two, employee safety was a big consideration when we were looking for office space. We did not want our employees to be in a place where they were alone. Being on the GSHSC campus has been great because there is a whole community of like-minded professionals.
