Miriam Giving Day 2026 Advocate Toolkit
#MiriamGivingDay
Thank you for helping spread the word about #MiriamGivingDay!
Your voice can introduce new people to Miriam, inspire others to give, and help create even more opportunities for students with learning differences.
Our 2026 campaign begins Wednesday, Oct. 21, with a goal of raising $100,000 for Miriam students and families. Thanks to generous matching donors, every gift made during the campaign will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $50,000.
Whether you share one post, send a few personal messages, or create your own Advocate page, every effort helps.

#MiriamGivingDay is Here!
Hi (first name),
Today is the day—#MiriamGivingDay is here! As someone who cares deeply about Miriam and its students, I want to personally invite you to join me by making a gift of any size to support our mission. Your tax-deductible donation will directly impact the lives of students who rely on Miriam for specialized education and support.
If everyone gave just $10, it would add up to an incredible amount of support for our students. Every single gift truly makes a difference!
Please use my referral link so we can track the impact we create together: (ambassador link).
