Stocks in the Future (SIF), celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, is a nonprofit with a strong mission, a growing program, and a dedicated team of educators and volunteers.
However, like so many small nonprofits, SIF is facing many challenges presented by COVID-19 and social distancing. It was necessary to cancel our annual fundraiser, March Market Madness, which meant the loss of critical funding (approximately $40,000 each year) of our operations.
This spring, there are three ways you can help SIF make up for the financial loss we have suffered due to the pandemic. We ask you to support us in one or all of the ways below:
1. Help our board members raise funds (see the Leaderboard above) with an unrestricted gift that will go to SIF's greatest need. Help us reach our $25,000 goal!
2. Join us for A Panel Discussion: COVID-19 and Living in a World of Risk on Wednesday, May 27th at 7:00 p.m. to benefit SIF. This virtual discussion and Q&A (on Zoom) will feature an illustrious panel of experts from Johns Hopkins University along with Maryland Senator Melony Ghee Griffith. Click her for tickets (minimum suggested donation of $25) and detailed information.
3. Our March Market Madness silent auction is going virtual! We will be auctioning off a fantastic array of packages using Bidding Owl. Be on the lookout for information on featured items followed by a link so you can start the bidding fun for a great cause!
In this uncertain world, SIF's mission of teaching financial literacy to Baltimore's youth is more urgent than ever before. Young people will need to be armed with skills and information for what will likely prove to be a time of financial hardship as they come of age. Help us prepare middle school students for future success by giving generously to SIF's Spring Support Drive!
