Fundraising
• Longtime volunteer and donor, Peter Fiekowsky put forward a challenge match for Grassroots Fundraising. If we can collectively raise over $25,000 through Friends & Family campaigns from Nov 1-Nov 30, Peter will contribute an additional $10,000 to RESULTS.
• Since announcing the challenge, an additional 12 groups have joined forces with the 4 campaigns previously running. Not only that, but 7 of RESULTS’ staff members have joined in as well. So far, we have raised just over $5,000 towards this month’s challenge goal of $25,000.
• Keep up the great work! And if you haven’t created a campaign yet, it’s not too late! Join us in this challenge.
• Reach out to Jen DeFranco ([email protected]) or Jerusa Contee ([email protected]) for assistance.

Laser Talk: Holidays and the Reach Act
November 2015 RESULTS National Conference Call/Webinar Slides

Engage the audience: Thanksgiving and the upcoming winter holidays give us cause for reflection. Personally, I’m thankful that my family and I have access to healthcare. State the problem: But I’m also aware that, around the globe, babies and kids die too often due to preventable infection, poor nutrition, or the lack of a basic vaccination. Today 11 children under age 5 still die of preventable causes each minute. Inform on the solution: The good news is that needless child deaths have gone down, and we now have an opportunity to accelerate progress. The Reach Every Mother and Child Act, S. 1911 and H.R. 3706, are bipartisan bills that will intensify our work with partner countries. The ultimate goal is to end unnecessary maternal and child deaths by 2035. Call to action: I know the Representative/Senator cares about kids and families. Can I count on him/her to cosponsor the Reach Act and to encourage at least one colleague from across the aisle to do the same?
“Courage is being scared to death . . . and saddling up anyway.”
