• RUTHMERE FOREVER CHALLENGE MATCH IS A GAME CHANGER
• 1.     By making a Ruthmere Forever Challenge Match gift, your philanthropy will be leveraged in a variety of ways.  First your contribution is available and accessible for direct support of current programs.  In the past two years, nearly 25% of Ruthmere's operational support has come in the form of Ruthmere Forever Challenge Match gifts.
  
• 2.     A Challenge Match contribution is also designated at the time of your gift for optional use in the "Ruthmere Forever Challenge Match Pool," meaning that it can be utilized for the purpose of either public match support in grant applications or as "challenge matches" from community funding partners that support a wide variety of current Ruthmere Campus projects and programs.  Your generosity is fully leveraged!

IT STARTS WITH YOU TODAY!
