It's Giving Tuesday, and [Org name] is raising $1,000 for free garden plots.
[Donation link]
Each plot costs $50 in soil, seeds and shared tools. At that price, 20 neighbors who can't afford the plot fee or supplies can grow their own food next growing season. I'm proud of how our plot holders and volunteers show up. If your business would like to match gifts today, or share this with your network, I'd be grateful. Every dollar goes to the program because our platform, Zeffy, is free for nonprofits.
