Your match helps make moments like these possible.
Every day, teens come to Alive looking for a place to connect, feel supported, try something new, and simply be themselves.
Across Hanover Park, Aurora, and Naperville, our teens say it best:
Ay’Pdio | Alive Hanover Park
“Alive is my place because I get to hang out with my friends, play games, and always find something fun to do.”
Abel | Alive Aurora
“Alive is my place because it has helped my mental health. I feel better and less alone, and since coming here, I’ve opened up more.”
Zac | Alive Naperville
“Alive is my place because there’s always good energy, good friends, and space to just be myself.”
Your match helps keep these opportunities free and accessible to local teens.
Match Partners make the $60,000 Giving Tuesday match possible and help every community gift go twice as far for local teens.
Choose the level that feels right for you, from a $1,000 Connection Match Partner to a $10,000 Champion Match Partner. Each level helps strengthen the campaign while supporting Alive’s free, Teen-Led, Teen-Driven™ programs across Naperville, Aurora, and Hanover Park.
Recognition increases by level and may include campaign-page visibility, social media recognition, email recognition, inclusion in campaign materials, and post-campaign thank-you recognition. Our highest-level partners receive additional opportunities for dedicated recognition throughout the campaign.
Custom match pledges beginning at $500 are also welcome.
Every commitment helps us move closer to the full match and gives the wider community the opportunity to make their generosity go further. Most importantly, it helps Alive continue providing free spaces where teens can belong, connect, lead, and grow.
Before Giving Tuesday begins, Alive is building a $60,000 matching gift pool with support from individuals, families, businesses, and community partners.
As a Match Partner, your gift is pledged in advance and used to double community donations dollar-for-dollar on Giving Tuesday. Together, a $60,000 match can help Alive raise $120,000 for local teens.
Match Partners commit their gifts before the campaign launches. On Giving Tuesday, every community donation is matched while funds remain, allowing each gift to go twice as far.
Your match helps create momentum around the campaign and gives the wider community even more reason to participate.
Matching gifts support Alive’s free, Teen-Led, Teen-Driven™ programs and safe, welcoming spaces across Naperville, Aurora, and Hanover Park.
Your support helps create places where teens can belong, connect, lead, and grow while expanding access to preventative mental health support in our communities.
Match pledges begin at $500.
