Andy, I wanted to personally reach out to make sure you saw this match opportunity ahead of tomorrow’s year-end deadline.
As Chief Financial Officer at Sandy Hook Promise, my top priority right now is making sure we have the resources we need in the new year to protect more children from gun violence and that your generous contributions are used wisely.
That’s why we strive to be an organization that you trust – one that’s transparent and worthy of your support. We’ve worked hard to earn a four-star rating from Charity Navigator, their highest rating. In fact, they awarded us a 100% rating for Accountability and Finance, due to our efficiency, sustainability and trustworthiness. That means you can count on us to be good stewards of your generosity.
*To maximize our efficiency with raising awareness and expanding our reach, Sandy Hook Promise relies heavily on free advertising donated by the generous members of our Media Advisory Board and other partners. In keeping with best practices for transparency, please review both versions of our expense ratios.
Right now, during a time when guns are the number one cause of death for children in our country, it’s clear that our work is as urgent as it has ever been. But after looking at the numbers, I know we’re going to need more resources to expand our efforts to save more lives in 2026.
Because this is one of the most important fundraising moments of the entire year, a generous group of donors is providing up to $2.5 million in match funding to double the impact of all gifts until we use those funds – but only until midnight tomorrow.
This year-end fundraising push is vital to our efforts, Andy, and we’re still very short on our match goal. So with time running out, I need to ask you directly:
If you've saved your payment information with FastAction, your donation will go through immediately:
Without your support, our work wouldn’t be possible. That’s why I can’t ever thank you enough for all you do to help us prevent gun violence and save lives. I’m so grateful to head into another year with you by our side.
Dave Conrad
Chief Financial Officer
