4x More People Are Waiting Than We Can Serve
This North Texas Giving Day, help us turn a wait into a welcome. For every neighbor we can welcome, four more are waiting for an opportunity. They are ready to work, learn, and build a stronger future—but barriers can make it harder to move forward. At Watermark CDC, we remove barriers for stronger financial futures. Our goal is $500,000, and thanks to a generous $200,000 matching gift, every dollar you give up to $200,000 will be matched 1:1.
Every Gift Helps Remove a Barrier
$29.07 — Inspired by Jeremiah 29:7, your gift helps us seek the good of our city and invest in the people who call it home.
$100 — Helps remove practical barriers that can make it harder for someone to pursue work and move forward.
$250 — Helps provide a five-session career coaching journey with a trained volunteer coach.
$1,000 — Helps provide coaching, training, and practical support for neighbors pursuing financial sustainability, meaningful work, or business growth.
$7,500 — Helps fund a Financial Catalyst matched asset purchase, giving a neighbor the opportunity to build a stronger financial future.
The need is real. In our most recent cohorts, we had to turn away 98 neighbors who were ready to take their next step. Your gift helps us make room for more of them.
We've seen what happens when barriers are removed. Audrey is building a new future through career coaching. Taylor is pursuing her entrepreneurial dreams. Their stories remind us that when people have opportunity, support, and someone willing to walk alongside them, lives can change.
Give today and help us unlock the full match so we can welcome more neighbors who are ready for an opportunity
More neighbors are ready. Help us make room for them.
