We have officially launch our Building Together Campaign! This project will not happen without all of us bringing the best of what we have! So, we are asking you to please consider responding to one of these five actions steps:

1. Share the video widely
Please share this wonderfully made video anywhere and everywhere you can. You can send the video directly to friends, family, or co-workers from YouTube here. You can also go to River City’s Insta or FB page and share it directly from there. And when you send it, maybe say something in your own words about it? :)
2. Invite your network to the Oct 15th event
We are going to host a wonderful, interactive event on October 15th from 6:00-7:30 p.m. Guests will have the opportunity to visit each of the 4 dimensions of property (recreation area, performing arts area, nature area, and job creation area) and there will be catered food and drink. To make this as simple as possible, I have written a sample email that you can use, or that you can add your own words to, when you email or text a friend, family member or co-worker to come. Click here for the sample email.
3. Invite your network to donate to the project
Many of you will have friends, family, or co-workers that will not be able to attend the event, but who would still joyfully contribute to this amazing project. We have written a sample email that you can use, or add your own words to, when inviting your network to donate to the project. Click here for the sample email.
4. Invite your network to meet 1:1 with me
It is common for high-net-worth donors to request a 1:1 meeting when considering making a substantial donation to a charitable project. As a founding board member of R CITY (for secular or corporate contacts) or as senior pastor of River City (for those who are motivated to give out of faith). Pastor Daniel is happy to meet 1:1 with those who would like to learn more about the project for donating. Just email dhill@rivercitychicago.com
5. Invite your company to donate to the project
Most companies have some type of philanthropic department that offers support to nonprofits ranging from charitable donations, to philanthropic grants, to matching giving. We have a written sample email that you can use, or add your own words to, when inviting your company to learn more about this project. Click here for the sample email.
Thank you so much for taking this project so seriously. It is going to make an enormous impact in our neighborhood, and we need each one of us to do our part!
With love,
