This Giving Tuesday (December 2nd), every gift given to Associação Crescimento Limpo (CL) will be MATCHED on GlobalGiving — instantly doubling the impact of your generosity.
At CL, we provide safe housing, daily meals, professional development, life-skills training, and community to men and women as they rebuild their lives after homelessness and addiction. We believe in walking with each person as they pursue restoration, dignity, and independence.
One of our newest residents, Bonifácio, recently arrived from Rio de Janeiro after hearing about our housing program. At first, he was simply grateful to have a safe place to sleep. But he soon discovered that CL would challenge him in deeper ways through our work programs and life-skills classes.
After one recent class he laughed and said, “You just took a sledgehammer to the whole way I survive in this world!” Yet what’s beautiful is this—he didn’t pull back. He leaned in, working to learn, to grow, and to build an entirely new way of life.
Your Giving Tuesday gift helps make stories like Bonifácio’s possible—and this week, your impact is doubled through GlobalGiving’s match.
Give on Giving Tuesday.
Double your gift.
And thanks for the love :)
