Free Annual Membership?? Free shirts n’ merch?? free feeling of love, warmth, and embrace by my fellow community members - and i don’t even (necessarily) need to donate??
We’ve had Giving Tuesday but it’s now time for Coloradans to show everyone how we give! On Tuesday, December 5th, people around the country are giving to Colorado nonprofits, including Denver Tool Library. And YOU can make the biggest impact for tool access in Denver!
I love the Denver Tool Library, but how could i, a person with a social media account and/or job and/or a tiny bit of extra cash, make an impact?
I’m so glad you asked! The Denver Tool Library is a grassroots organization which means that every dollar, post share, and volunteer hour makes a huge impact. For this Colorado Gives Day, we’re asking for you to do one, two, or all of the actions listed below.
Share why you support the Denver Tool Library on social media and tag us! The more people who know about us, the more we are able to increase tool access.
Make a donation! The greatest part of Colorado Gives Day is that our community comes together to make donations that add up to make a HUGE impact! $5 from 100 people means we now have $500. This could buy us a new high demand tool, give out memberships to families who need it, or make sure our staff are able to focus on what they need to.
Ask your company to match your donation! A lot of companies have a matching program. Reach out to your employer to see if they will match your donation to double your impact!
This seems easy, but my brain needs things to be gamified for me to actually do it. What did you say earlier about the free prizes?
We understand that! Not only will you be making an impact for tool access in Denver, but you will also have a chance to win fun prizes!
For every social media post you make (and tag us in) between now and the end of Colorado Gives Day, you will be entered to win an Annual Membership! If we share any of your posts, that will count as an extra entry so make sure to use your best pictures and most heart!
Some ideas for posts to make while mentioning our CO Gives Fundraiser on 12/5:
How the Denver Tool Library has helped you personally
Photos of a project you've made with our tools
A photo of the worst thing you've ever built
What a cool concept we are
Something you just really want to say to a few thousand people that vaguely has to do with the Denver Tool Library (remember though, we don't HAVE to repost, so like, don't go too hard - you gotta pander at least a bit).
Also make sure to follow us on Instagram because on Colorado Gives Day there will be some fun surprises and chances to win some more Denver Tool Library swag.
Thank you for being a part of our team! Now let’s raise some resources for the Denver Tool Library! 🥳
