Valley Gives Day 2014

PHENOM is participating in the third Valley Gives Day, scheduled for December 10, 2014. VGD is hosted by the Community  Foundation of Western Massachusetts in partnership with the Women’s Fund of Western Massachusetts, the Jewish Endowment Foundation, the Jewish Federation of Western Massachusetts, the Pioneer Valley United Way, the The Davis Foundation, the United Way of Franklin County, the United Way of Hampshire County, and The
Beveridge Foundation, Valley Gives is an innovative online fundraising event that encourages individuals to donate as much money as possible in support of their favorite charities in just 24 hours.

Valley Gives garnered $1 million in donations in the first year (2012) and then in 2013, doubled results to over $2 million raised in just 24 hours from over 11,000 people. The goal this year is to attract 20,000 donors and raise over $2 million.

PHENOM is excited to partner with other nonprofits across the Pioneer Valley to see how much we can raise to serve our communities. Events like this help PHENOM continue its advocacy of affordable, accessible and quality public higher education in Massachusetts.

Beginning at midnight EST on December 10 and continuing until 11:59pm EST, supporters of PHENOM can go to http://valleygives.razoo.com/story/Public-Higher-Education-Network-Of-Massachusetts to make a tax-deductible donation.
