Zego Cares - Black Lives Matter
***Campaign is CLOSED! Thank you all who donated!***
Black Lives Matter - and one way we are showing our support at Zego, and encouraging our Zegonauts to show their support as well, is through donations to the five following charities focused on supporting our Black American communities and causes.
Please help us reach our goal of $5000 total amongst these 5 organizations. As promised Zego will match up to $5,000 total, and additionally Dirk will personally match up to $2,500.
*Our ELT has added another $12k in matched donations! They will match up to $12K in addition to the company's $5k match.
Your donation will be split evenly amongst the five organizations, unless otherwise specified. If you feel strongly about your donation going to only one of the organizations (or a couple), please leave a comment with your donation to let us know which organization(s) (out of the 5 listed here) that you want your donation to support.
1. Code2040 - Our mission is to activate, connect, and mobilize the largest racial equity community in tech to dismantle the structural barriers that prevent the full participation and leadership of Black and Latinx people in the innovation economy.
2. Know Your Rights Camp - Our mission is to advance the liberation and well-being of Black and Brown communities through education, self-empowerment, mass-mobilization and the creation of new systems that elevate the next generation of change leaders.
3. Loveland Foundation - The Loveland Foundation is the official continuation of the effort to bring opportunity and healing to communities of color, and especially to Black women and girls.
4. San Diego Black Nurses Association - The vision of San Diego Black Nurses Association (SDBNA) Inc. is to be the premier provider of Health Education and Health Promotion to achieve optimum health through a continuum of care for African Americans and other underserved populations in the San Diego Community.
