Hello!
Spoiler alert - we are on track to welcome 13 NEW female Fellows in November! If you remember, our goal in July was to welcome 10 female Fellows before the end of the year. We have surpased our goal! In fact, combined with our September Class, we will welcome a total of 18 new female Fellows. YOUR support made the difference. You are helping us empower women globally!
Will you show your enthusiasm for this achievement by GivingToday? If you give TODAY, your donation will be matched 100%.
Our goal is to raise $50,000 before the end of October (and it will all be matched!). Already, we are more than 60% toward our goal. When you are GivingToday, you directly benefit Atlas Corps Fellows—like Vithika, a anti slavery, sexual rights and gender rights activist from India who recently received the honor of being one of the Top 120 under 40 New Generation of Family Planning leaders in the world. And Gigi, a communications expert from Venezuela who uses technology to advance women. And me, who became a Fellow in 2008 and just celebrated 8 years on the team.
Thank you for your past support of Atlas Corps! As an Alumna and as a team member, it really means a lot to me. You opened the door of opportunity for me and now we can do it for more women, and emerging professionals, from around the world!
Donate today and you will multiply your impact, empower women globally, and continue your support of Atlas Corps.
Cheers!
Abby

More Info on GivingToday
#GivingToday is a special campaign to raise funds to support Atlas Corps Fellows, inspired social change leaders who commit a year of professional service in the United States. Atlas Corps is fueled by the support of hundreds of individual donors. In 2017, more than 250 individuals supported Atlas Corps in the last month of the year. This year, we want to "beat the holiday rush." We are inviting our supporters to fast forward their holiday giving and send their gifts to Atlas Corps in October. An added bonus, your gift will be matched $1 for $1 match for all gifts received in October. Our goal is to raise $50,000 and to receive a $50,000 match! Let's celebrate the holidays early by #GivingToday! Learn more at donate.atlascorps.org.
