GGC Matching Campaign Update
Hello GGC Community!
We are in the thick of our Matching Campaign and we just wanted to thank you all so much for continuing to support us during our fundraising efforts! Since the matching challenge began on August 25, we’ve raised $3,560 in donations. With the one to one match provided by our generous donors (up to $11,000), that means we’re $7,120 closer to our $25,000 individual funding goal.
This year is a pivotal year for GGC and fundraisers, like this campaign, are critical for us to continue providing the convention you all know and love. But what else are we doing? Since the beginning of the year, our awesome sponsorship and grant manager has obtained $40,400 in grants and sponsorships! How amazing is that!? We’re so thankful to these organizations for believing in us and supporting our efforts to continue GGC into 2026 and the future.
As we’ve shared before, GeekGirlCon is entirely run by volunteers and all money raised goes directly into making the convention happen.
Our volunteer staff is the heart and soul of this organization. Without them, GGC wouldn’t be nearly as lovingly curated and run as it is year after year. Our volunteers do anything from coordinating the gaming hall to getting our panels on stream to helping make everyone’s experience enjoyable during the convention. If volunteering for a cool nonprofit convention sounds like fun to you, we’d love to have you! Consider looking at our openings!
As always, there are other ways to help us meet our goals! You can help boost GGC and our match campaign by:
- Sharing this blog post on social media.
- Like, comment, and share GGC social media posts about the match campaign.
- See if your company will match your donation to GGC!
If you’re interested in helping us reach our match goal, you can donate here between now and November 9th!
