The Obama Foundation can change a young person’s life. I know, because this community changed mine.

My name is Elpida, and I founded Mexoxo, a nonprofit organization that helps democratize education for women around the world. I am forever grateful for The Obama Leaders program, which was critical in helping me grow my nonprofit so that I can support even more women to access the education they need.

But there are still so many other budding leaders who just need the opportunity and guidance to make big differences in their communities. Like me, they are passionate changemakers, working to build a better world for future generations—and they are ready for the chance to amplify their impact.

Can you make a special year end gift of $25 or more while your donation will be matched, dollar-for-dollar? Your urgently-needed gift will be rushed directly toward The Obama Foundation’s life-changing work like the Leaders Program, and create an impact that lasts generations.

Your gift today will spark a brighter future. Inspired by President Obama’s leadership approach, the Leaders Program engages changemakers in the challenges, opportunities, and skills of making positive change.

During my time in the program, I had the opportunity to meet individuals who are also committed to creating change worldwide. Many of us found common ground in our mission to empower women.

Thanks to the Leaders Program, I was able to harness shared values and global partnerships with changemakers around the world. This experience will help me on my mission to empower even more women in my community.

My experience was only made possible thanks to the generosity of donors like you, and right now, there are leaders rising up, ready to create change in their communities. With the resources and support provided by The Foundation, they can amplify their impact and drive even more progress.

Don’t wait to make your year end gift of $25 to The Obama Foundation because right now, all donations are matched to have double the impact! Give now and help be the spark in a young leader’s life.

Thank you for supporting leaders and helping create a brighter future,

—Elpida
