Dear Friends,

Thank you for choosing to support Bolder Giving. Our goal is to inspire you to give
boldly to your favorite organizations and causes -- and to encourage you to support Bolder Giving's efforts throughout the year.  Your contribution is truly the gift that keeps giving!

There is tremendous power in the collective belief that we can Give More, Risk More, and Inspire More. The remarkable individuals whose stories appear on our pages began their giving with the conviction that their gift, significant to their own circumstances, could move this world a little closer to where it should be. They encourage me in my giving; I hope they encourage you, too.

Will you give today to help us expand the giving conversation?
One of the projects that we are extremely excited about is Give OUT Day, the first national "give big" fundraising day for LGBTQ causes, slated for May 9 of this year. If you haven’t already, please visit our lively portal, http://www.giveout.org, which is chockfull of information on how you can join this groundbreaking initiative to put giving for and by the LGBTQ community on the national agenda.

Will you please join us in this effort and make a gift today?
Thank you in advance for your generosity and for being part of Bolder Giving's journey!

Best wishes,

Jason Franklin
Executive Director

Give more. Risk more. Inspire more.

Bolder Giving inspires and supports people to give at their full lifetime potential. We invite people to:
Give More - to increase how much they give (as a percent of income, assets or business profits),
Risk More - to be adventurous in how they give (e.g. to give to social change rather than just to charity, to support newer or smaller organizations, to give to communities besides their own) and
Inspire More - to encourage others to give (e.g. to open conversations about giving with family, friends, and advisors, to do public speaking or media interviews)
