All Community created Funds

As the Coronavirus pandemic continues to spread across the globe the needs of our communities have become clear. In honor of GiveTuesdayNow on May 5th, 2020 Bright Funds has put together the Coronavirus GivingTuesdayNow Fund. This Fund represents nonprofits addressing key issue areas identified by the Center for Disaster Philanthropy: Medical Needs, Mental Health, Children and Youth, Income and Basic Needs and Social Justice. Through a single donation to the Fund, you can support multiple organizations' initiatives to provide short-term and long-term response and recovery. Given the ever-changing nature of this pandemic and widespread impact, the composition of the nonprofits in this Fund will evolve.

Calling on our Cisco family to help support an amazing opportunity to assist more than one million Americans living with blood cancers. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) has nominated our own, Tina Swallow as a candidate in the “Man & Woman of the Year” fundraising campaign. We have a small team working to raise as much money as possible in a 10-week period for LLS. We have from May 7, 2020 - July 18, 2020, to meet our goals! Every dollar raised counts as one vote and the candidate who gets the most votes (raises the most money) is named the Man or Woman of the Year. This year, the National Capital Area (NCA) chapter of LLS selected 26 candidates to reach its fundraising goal of $3.5 million. I know these are unprecedented times and COVID-19 is changing the world at a rapid pace. Times are hard, there are fears and a lot of unknowns. In these challenging times, there is one thing we do know – Every 3 minutes someone is diagnosed with blood cancer and the COVID-19 crisis does nothing to change that fact. In addition to a grueling battle against cancer, patients are now faced with the threat of a virus that could put them at further risk, as well as the possibility of delays in treatment, as hospitals face maximum capacity. This campaign is very personal to Tina. Her oldest son Beau was diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer at age 12 and was given a 5-7% chance of surviving past treatment. After 23 rounds of chemo, an 8-hour surgery and 6-weeks of radiation, Beau found the strength to persevere. Visit www.bridgetoacure.com to read more about her story.

During this COVID-19 pandemic, some victims of domestic abuse are forced to be in quarantine with their abusers. And the abusers might be experiencing economic hardship. It leads to higher risk of abuse and could lead to higher fatalities. Join us in supporting Control Alt Delete. It is a federally designated 501(c)3 nonprofit that helps people escaping domestic violence by removing the barriers that often keep them in unsafe situations. 98% of all domestic abuse victims are also financially abused – they may want to escape but have no financial means to do so. It is hard to imagine that a $5 gas card can be the difference between staying and escaping but that is the reality; a reality that can be the difference between life and death. You can make that difference, please donate and spread the word. Together we can save more lives. https://youtu.be/LPKrgYPUy5I For more information: https://www.dvcontrolaltdelete.org/

Let's get together to support Rise Against Hunger!

The W.H.O. has declared COVID-19 a pandemic and public health emergency of international concern. Bright Funds Foundation has established the 2020 Coronavirus Healthcare Fund to support medical care systems and healthcare workers. Through a single donation to the Fund, you can support multiple organizations' initiatives to provide short-term and long-term response and recovery. Given the ever-changing nature of this pandemic and widespread impact, the composition of the nonprofits in this Fund may evolve.

It’s happening in every single community in the country. Thousands of people have lost their jobs due to the pandemic, and for those people already living paycheck to paycheck, they now have to make the choice between food, bills or medicine. The people affected might be your co-workers, family, friends, and neighbors. But people in our communities like the elderly, the disabled and children are also affected as are the people that serve our communities. Covid19 doesn’t discriminate when it comes to who gets infected, but it also doesn’t discriminate as far as who gets affected economically even if they don’t contract the virus. We’re thankful our paychecks haven’t stopped. We’re thankful we still have a job. And we want to make sure our communities don’t go hungry. The Feeding America network is the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States including in times of disasters and national emergencies. All eligible donations made by VMware employees to this fund will be matched. Whether it’s a dollar, 5 dollars, 100, or a 1,000, please donate. Every bit helps, and a monetary donation or online fundraiser is one of the most efficient and effective ways to support your local food bank in a crisis situation. But don’t let it stop with you. Pass the plate and challenge your colleagues, family and friends to also join in donating by tagging them and challenging them and even having them record a video of themselves passing the plate. The most vulnerable people in our communities need us now more than ever, so let’s be EPIC, and do what we can to help. It’s your turn now! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvN14uM_6Kw&feature=youtu.be

Across the country, many people are stuck at home feeling helpless yet wanting to do something to help. Social distancing is working, but we can do more. In the coming weeks, the vast majority of Americans will receive a stimulus check to help pay rent, shop for food, and support local businesses during the COVID19 pandemic. However, some of us are fortunate enough to be able to afford basic goods and don't need that money right now. We have the opportunity to redirect these funds to directly support members of our community who may not be so fortunate. If you can, please pledge your check (or a portion of it) in order to provide food, supplies, and services to those who need it most. Your donation will support the COVID19 relief efforts in Connecticut led by the Connecticut Food Bank and the CREC, a foundation that is helping to provide childcare to on-duty healthcare workers across the state.

InVision Virtual Events Support Corona Virus Relief and Response

Across the country, people like you and I are doing what we can to protect ourselves and one another from COVID-19 by practicing social distancing. This tactic has been successful in slowing the naturally rampant spread of the disease, but we can do more. In the coming weeks, many Americans will receive a stimulus check to help pay rent, shop for food and support local businesses during this pandemic. However, some of us are in stable financial positions and might not need that money as much as other people in our communities. We have the opportunity to redirect these funds toward those in our communities that may be suffering from harsher financial pains. If you are eligible to receive the stimulus check and can, please join your peers in pledging your check (or a portion of it) to provide food, supplies, and services to those who need it most. Your donation will support the COVID-19 relief efforts in New Jersey, led by nourish.NJ and Elijah's Promise Community Kitchen. Stay home, make an impact. Join the HomeTeam.
