Double Your Donation to FACT This Giving Tuesday
By Charlotte Isles, Fundraising and Communications Coordinator
Today is Giving Tuesday and as people around the world come together to support important causes, please consider helping FACT in our mission to support farmers and their animals, and in making safe and healthy food a reality for all.
Thanks to our Board members generously matching the first $10,100 your gift has the chance to be doubled. Help us reach our goal of $20,000 and ensure your gift is matched by making your Giving Tuesday donation to FACT today!
Giving Tuesday is dedicated to giving back to the community and thanks to you, we are able to make a huge impact on the lives of humane farmers and farm animals.
One example is Slow Farm in Cameron, NC, owned by Rachel Herrick and Carl Dyke. They received a Fund-a-Farmer grant from FACT to build six sturdy pasture shelters with wood floors to keep their rotationally pastured pigs dry and healthy year-round. Check out the pictures of their beautifully painted shelters.
"Receiving this grant will allow me to keep my pigs comfortable & dry in winter & extreme weather, as well as expand the acreage devoted to winter pasture to include areas currently inaccessible due to sheltering concerns." Rachel Herrick
This March we awarded an incredible 87 Fund-a-Farmer grants, for a total of $253,807, to farms and ranches located across 34 different states. This crop represents our largest cohort ever and funded a diverse number of projects.
However, we need your support to help this fund grow and support more farmers like Rachel and Carl. Today you can double your impact by making a donation this Giving Tuesday that's meaningful to you.
Together we can expand humane farming and make the food we eat healthier and safer for everyone.
