Mark your calendars! Tuesday, Nov. 27th is Rally at the Capital for Colorado Gives Day. The Community First Foundation will host the Rally at the Capitol event which provides non-profit organizations participating in Colorado Gives Day an opportunity to boost the buzz for Colorado Gives Day and drive donor support toward their organization and causes. The rally is open to the public and begins at 11:00 am MST at the Colorado State Capitol building right in downtown Denver.

Why You Should Attend the Rally at the Capitol Event

The Colorado Gives Day Rally at the Capitol event has something to offer donors and nonprofits organizations, including:

• Cash prizes

Tips for Nonprofit Attendees from The Community First Foundation

• Generally, 2 – 4 people representing your organization is best
• Use colorful signs and eye-catching banners of all shapes and sizes to attract attention
• Take selfies and post to social media using the official Colorado Gives Day hashtag: #COGivesDay to drive online interest and momentum
• Be prepared to be outside — bundle up and bring water
• Allow extra time for parking. Metered parking and pay lots are located near the Capitol
