America's Giving Challenge a Success
The Challenge is over. We received this letter on February 26, 2008:
"Dear Bernie,
Great news! Your organization has been awarded $1,000 through the America’s Giving Challenge, an exciting online initiative designed to make giving part of living.
Presented by Parade Magazine and the Case Foundation, with GlobalGiving as their donation partner, the Challenge called on participants to raise funds for and/or donate to the charities and causes they care about most.
The 50 nonprofits with the greatest number of total donations made to them through GlobalGiving were then eligible for an additional $1,000. And your organization is one of the top 50. Congratulations!
We believe America’s Giving Challenge has shown the true power of online philanthropy, and we’re excited to reward organizations doing interesting, inspiring work. You clearly have a lot of people who care deeply about your cause.

And again, congratulations!
Yours in giving,
GlobalGiving, The Case Foundation, and Parade Magazine"
Thank you to all who made this Challenge a success, allowing to make a difference to the life of poor high school students.
