Subject: Rotary-GLP: LAST CHANCE to join the GLP Global Grant by Nov. 30
Reply-To: in...@guatemalaliteracy.org
Dear K.,
With your help, the Guatemala Literacy Project can bring life-changing educational programs to over 8,000 students and teachers in Guatemala. To make that happen, we need all club and district pledges for the 2019-2020 Global Grant hosted by the Rotary Clubs of Guatemala Oeste and Sudbury, Canada by November 30.
At the moment, we are only at 62% of that goal, so if your club hasn't already made a pledge, we need your help to ensure that we won't have to scale back our projects. So, if your club hasn't already signed on this year, don't wait any longer to join the 97 clubs (listed below) included on this grant so far!
Your support will change thousands of lives in Guatemala. Here's how to help:

Join the Global Grant
Invite your club to join the Global Grant #1989785 hosted by the Rotary Clubs of Guatemala Oeste (D-4250) and Sudbury, ON (D-7010). The grant pays largely for educational tools like textbooks and computers as well as top-notch training for local teachers.
This year’s Global Grant pledge deadline is November 30, 2019. Don’t wait—bring up the GLP at your next club meeting! All pledges must be made through our easy online form. Please let us know if you have any questions by replying to this email.

Sponsor a Student
Get those books and computers into the hands of students by sponsoring a scholar in the GLP’s Rise Youth Development Program. There are over 300 Rise Program scholars who show great potential but face overwhelming obstacles, and they need your support to stay in school next year and benefit from the GLP’s long history of sustainable, tried-and-true programs. If your club has been continuing to support GLP global grants for years, this is also a great way to connect your club’s support with an individual child who you are helping.
Hey, Canadians—don't forget about that extra match!
We will once again apply for the matching grant from the government of Canada—which has the potential to match your club’s funds up to 6.5 times!! This may be the last year Canada offers this fantastic opportunity, so maximize your club’s giving potential while you still can.
