Strikeforce 421 is a women’s giving circle dedicated to radical, lifechanging generosity, which has donated more than $1 million to local Christian charities since its inception. By pooling their resources together, women have found they can make a greater impact in meeting the needs of our community. Each Strikeforce 421 pledge partner contributes $1,000 or more a year and all the funds are pooled together and given away annually to ministries that proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ as a part of what they do. This year’s semi-finalists include Sonrise Mission, Hearts for Moms, Youth For Christ Fort Lauderdale, Grace Place School and Many But One. Strikeforce 421 hopes to raise $237,000 to fully fund their grant requests by the Spring Grant Award Celebration on March 16.
