Last May, my local THINK chapter raised $5000 to give to The Humane League, of which I contributed $500. I’m currently a student and saving most of my money, so it’s not much, but it’s my biggest donation ever and I’m proud of it. I was also the first to propose that we give to The Humane League, so I can take some of the credit for the money going there instead of somewhere less effective.

Impressive, how did you raise that sort of sum?
Sorry for the late response! IIRC, five members each donated $500 and one member offered to match everyone else’s donation.
We received a $2000 matching from Giving 2.0, so we effectively moved $7000 to The Humane League.
Congratulations! How did you get the matching donation?
