Your Donation Can Serve Even More Vulnerable Children
Voices for Children is proud to partner with Focusing Philanthropy for the "Brighter Futures" campaign. For every $2 raised by Voices for Children for our CASA program in San Diego County, Focusing Philanthropy will generously donate $1 until the campaign's goal of $600,000 is reached.
The 2024 Brighter Futures Campaign has met its goal of $600,000. Thank you for your consideration, kindness, and support!
In San Diego County, it costs just $2,500 to recruit, train, and support a CASA volunteer for one child for an entire year. Reaching our goal of $600,000 will enable Voices for Children to support approximately 315 children.
Donations to this campaign are tax-deductible and 100% of the funds contributed will go directly to Voices for Children's CASA program in San Diego County. Focusing Philanthropy covers all overhead costs.
Focusing Philanthropy is challenging our donors to give generously! Donations of $1,000 or more made through Focusing Philanthropy's campaign portal will be eligible for the match.
"Larry and Cathy Gilson founded Focusing Philanthropy as an outgrowth of their own experience in charitable giving. The ability and opportunity to give money or time in support of a worthy cause is one of the most rewarding human experiences, yet, they found it difficult to find recipient organizations about which they could learn enough to be truly confident that their donations would be well used and have a material impact. The few services they were able to find to help them evaluate potential recipients were mostly limited geographically or lacked sufficient information or analysis to enable them to make donation decisions. They wanted insight and judgment just as they would if they were making any other type of investment decision. They created Focusing Philanthropy in response to these needs, and to share their findings with others who may have similar motivations and experiences.
Focusing Philanthropy seeks to help donors achieve a comparable level of comfort with a more diverse array of worthy recipients to that which they could obtain by visiting local charities. In so doing, we believe the level of giving will increase and very worthwhile organizations will be supported which might not otherwise have been known to motivated donors."
