To the CFSBK Fight Gone Bad 2014 Teams, from Brooklyn Community Foundation
Thank you for another incredible year of Fight Gone Bad. Your strength, energy, and teamwork are truly inspiring and it shows. This year you raised over $38,170 for your Brooklyn communities. Our Board of Directors recognized your leadership and initiative with a match, bringing your total fundraising to $64,510. Congratulations to all of you, especially to the top team, The Paleo Breakfast Club, and top fundraising team, Wall Ball Me, Maybe.
CFSBK is an amazing community and we are proud to have you as a partner in our work to support other amazing communities across Brooklyn. It is evident in your teamwork and camaraderie that you know how to bring out the best in one another. Brooklyn Community Foundation believes in this model. Our mission is to spark lasting social change for a fair and just Brooklyn. We do this by listening and engaging the community, funding and supporting successful programs that are working, and investing in new and innovative ideas. Since 2009, we have directed over $20 million to over 300 of the best and most effective nonprofits across Brooklyn. We have spent the last year talking to residents and leaders from across Brooklyn to identify our borough’s most pressing needs. On October 30th, we will release the findings from this project and talk about how what we heard will translate into an actionable plan for how we can best support our Brooklyn communities.
We cannot do this work without the support of donors like you—thank you. Your support is helping us build a fair and just Brooklyn not just for today, but also for the future. We invite you to join us on the morning of Thursday, October 30th at the Brooklyn Museum to hear about what’s next for the Foundation. You can also check out the following resources to learn more:
From all of us at Brooklyn Community Foundation, thank you for all your hard work and support!
