FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Eidos Architects is supporting Denver Public Schools Foundation and Denver Rescue Mission by collecting donations now and until December 8

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo.— November 25, 2020-

Colorado Honor Band invites you to support Denver Public Schools Foundation and Denver Rescue Mission by donating on Colorado Gives Day, December 8, 2020.

Community First Foundation and FirstBank present Colorado Gives Day, an annual statewide movement to celebrate and increase philanthropy through online giving. The event is powered by ColoradoGives.org, a year-round, online giving platform. Donors can easily search for our profile on the site and make safe and secure donations.

“Colorado Gives Day is our way of supporting our community,” Mae Ann Saas, Director of Client Relations at Eidos Architects said. “While many of us have given individually over the years, we are encouraging our staff and those in their inner circles to donate if they’re able to directly through Eidos’ fundraising pages.”

$1 Million Incentive Fund

Community First Foundation and FirstBank each contributed $500,000 to create a $1 Million Incentive Fund, one of the largest gives-day incentive funds in the country. Every nonprofit receiving a donation on Colorado Gives Day receives a portion of the fund, which increases the value of every dollar donated.

Community First Foundation, a leading foundation dedicated to fueling the power of community to drive positive change, and FirstBank, Colorado’s largest locally owned bank, have partnered to present Colorado Gives Day for the past eight years.

By making fundraising simple for nonprofits and giving easy for donors, it is one the most successful events of its kind in the nation.

Last year, $39.6 million was raised for Colorado nonprofits in just 24 hours.
