The #GivingTuesday clock is ticking, and Compass Pro Bono needs to raise only another $5K to unlock our $30K match. PLUS a new donor will kick in an extra $3500 if we make it. Can you pitch in $25, $50, or $100 so that we don't leave money on the table? So that we can help more nonprofits do what they do better.
