Help us reach 1,000

The—

Giving Tuesday is almost here, and I’m writing to tell you how your contribution to The Obama Foundation will make a difference this year.

We have a vision for a better world made possible by bringing together emerging changemakers from around the globe to help them tackle some of our most persistent problems–from climate change to human rights to threats to democracy. We’re also helping young people reach their full potential here in Chicago and around the world through the My Brother’s Keeper and Girls Opportunity Alliances.

This vision is possible. And, the good work is worth it to see the difference these programs and changemakers are having throughout our communities. So on this global day of generosity, we’re asking you to help us continue this work in 2025 and beyond, and I have some news that will make your impact even greater.

We just got word that a generous donor will contribute a special $25,000 matching gift to support The Obama Foundation, but only if 1,000 other people make a gift for Giving Tuesday!

Can you chip in today and be one of the 1,000 people we need to unlock this critical donation? Your contribution will have a huge impact for training the next generation of global leaders–work that you and I both know is more important than ever.

Giving Tuesday is all about community, and that’s why this generous donor came to us with this offer. They want to see The Obama Foundation community come together on Giving Tuesday in support of building a better future, and if 1,000 of us can do this, they’ll step up with this tremendous gift.

In addition to helping us unlock this $25,000 donation, your individual contribution will make a tremendous difference to The Obama Foundation’s ongoing work.

Our mission at The Obama Foundation is simple: inspire, empower, and connect people to change their world. And that’s exactly what your Giving Tuesday gift will do. It will fund programs for the next generation of leaders, empower girls around the world, and support boys and young men of color in Chicago and beyond.

The, we are depending on 1,000 generous people like you to make a Giving Tuesday contribution—will you be one of them?

Thank you for your continued support. Together, we can bring change home.
