David's 2020 P+P fundraiser

Hello,

 Whew - been quite a year, right? Too many Zoom calls and each day kinda bleeds into the other, just like my photo. Well, if there's a day we want to stand out in 2020 - Give to the Max Day (GTMD), this November 19! This is a great opportunity to support work that builds financial inclusion and justice, so please make this the day you give to geeks!

At Prepare + Prosper we are enthusiastic about making a difference through tax prep and financial services. Our staff and volunteers proudly show off our “inner geek” and put it to good use with tax forms and savings accounts. 

You all know what's at stake, especially with the pandemic hitting people's finances harder than ever, as well as laying bare, and exacerbating, racial wealth and health disparities.  As our outreach person, I get to explain first hand to the community the good work our programs do to build financial inclusion and justice, so let me break it down for you here --your support means we continue to: 

• Work with people to build savings and have access to needed wealth-building tax credits during tax time
• Get access to the financial mainstream and wealth building bank accounts, instead of relying on wealth-stripping predatory financial institutions
• Get on-one-on support to meet financial goals: pay down debt, build credit, save up to buy a home, car, you name it

I have set of goal of raising $200  to support this work and I’m hoping you will help me get there. 

For one day only, a group of our volunteers have pooled money to match your donation. All gifts on November 19 will be doubled and all donations of $100+ (or $10/month) will receive a limited-edition “Get Your Geek On” deck of cards, featuring myself and many other supporters geeking out about their favorite passions. 

You can schedule your gift now at my personal page: https://www.givemn.org/story/N76ltf 

Thanks for your consideration and support,

-David
