The check has arrived from the Community Foundation For Monterey County!
We raised $139,164.62!
We appreciate everyone who supported our campaign with a donation – and some of you more than once!
We raised $128,756 during the regular part of the campaign. The match on the first $75,000 that all organizations receive – a whopping 18.5 percent – increased that total after fees were deducted (fees came out of the matching fund NOT your donations). An amazing $1,568,448 was donated to the matching fund, a 13 percent increase from the 2023 campaign.
Golden Oldies finished fifth among 206 nonprofits for total number of donors with 485. We were 28th for the amount raised (fourth among 12 animal welfare nonprofits) and third for donors between the ages of 18-35 with 38.
Thank you for supporting Golden Oldies, the only older-cat-exclusive rescue in Monterey County!
