How Is This Different From Regular Donations?

As a member of our monthly giving program, you will receive special benefits that a one-time donor does not. Each level will receive a membership newsletter with detailed updates of how your gifts are being used and what is going on at We Are Loved. If you choose to upgrade your level, you will receive different gifts from our nonprofit founder and even be invited to a VIP Event at the end of the year!

Depending on the level of your choosing, the benefits of being a Lovebug will vary. Those who give $5 a month will receive a special We Are Loved coffee mug! Donors who give $15 a month will receive a mug and a membership T-Shirt, and those who give $25 a month will receive all of these items in addition to two tickets to a future We Are Loved event. Remember that all members will get member-only emails and newsletters in addition to these perks!

The Life Skills Program is a six weeks course that allows foster children to learn basic life skills that they might not get the chance to develop at home. We have built an incredible team of instructors who are prepared to teach virtually come February 2021 and are looking forward to the day we can all meet in person for the classes. 

Each course varies in cost due to the supplies required, but a seven course package is available for $300: Techniques of Cleaning 🧹, Resume Building/Writing ✍️, Socializing Without Social Media 🙋‍♂️, Cooking 🍝, Laundry 👕, Hygiene 🧖‍♀️, and Finance 👩‍💻. We Are Loved is hoping to purchase a house in the upcoming year where these classes can take place! It is our hope that this house will become a youth center for foster children enrolled in our program where they can make friends and become a confident young adult before entering the professional world.

By giving monthly instead of all at once, you are providing foster children with a reliable pool of donations throughout the year. Not only will 100% of your donations go directly to children’s holiday boxes, classes, and a house to learn at, but they will also make it easier for the We Are Loved team to execute these programs. Our fundraising costs will go down, as well as the list of supplies we need for each program. 

For example, a $5 gift each month will build two children’s Holiday Boxes! A $15 gift each month will cover up to five Life Skills classes for a child, and a $25 gift each month will cover the entire Life Skills Program for one child!

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are unfortunately unable to meet for a fundraising event like we did last year. Monthly giving is a perfect way to contribute to our cause while also enjoying the benefits that we would usually provide at events. The perk to our monthly giving program is that even when we can meet in person again, you will still receive your membership benefits in addition to the special surprises we have for events!
