Help Us Complete the Puzzle Through Matching Donations By June 6 FiftyForward is delighted to again offer a matching campaign! The campaign began on April 6 and will run until June 6. During this period, donations of any size will be matched dollar for dollar. Donations can be designated to support FiftyForward Madison Station! For every $105 we receive, we’ll put up a piece of the puzzle located in the main entrance hallway. When we get all the ‘pieces’, we’ll have raised $5,000, which matched will bring $10,000 to our center! Can’t give $105 by yourself? Get together with your class or group to put up a piece! We also have a matching bucket on the counter if you’d like to give small amounts. Thank you in advance for your support!
