Stretch Pool Current Value = $75,000 Donations will be "stretched" thanks to our Stretch Pool Sponsors
Stretch Pool Sponsors
Thanks to our most generous supporters, every eligible organization that raises $5 or more on Do More 24 Delaware will receive matching dollars on a proportionate basis from the stretch pool, thanks to Spur Impact, United Way of Delaware, Longwood Foundation, Welfare Foundation, Laffey-McHugh Foundation, Delaware Community Foundation, and other community supporters. Your organization's portion of the "stretch" depends on how much is raised in total donations. For example, if your organization receives 3% of the total donations raised by all organizations participating on Do More 24 Delaware, then your organization will receive 3% of the stretch pool. The formula for the stretch pool is: (Individual Charity's Amount Raised / Total Amount Raised on Do More 24 Delaware from eligible orgs) x Total Amount in Stretch Pool = Individual Charity's Share of Stretch Pool.
In addition to the stretch pool funds, there will be other cash and non-cash prizes awarded throughout the day, thanks to our many sponsors and supporting organizations. Organizations eligible to receive funding from the DDOA Stretch Pool (Large or Small Division) will not be eligible for the general stretch pool.
*We are working to calculate these amounts for everyone and will be in touch with the organizational captains soon with those results.
