As 2025 begins, we’re still celebrating an unforgettable milestone: Xcelerate Women’s first-ever Give!Guide campaign was a huge success—and it’s all thanks to our community!
We set out with an ambitious goal: raising $10,000 to support women and gender expansive business owners across Oregon. Not only did we hit that target, but we soared past it, raising $14,877.38, exceeding our goal by 48.8% and welcoming 100 new, first-time donors to the Xcelerate family.
This isn’t just about hitting numbers—it’s about building momentum for real change. Our community’s generosity is an investment in a future where success in business is more inclusive, authentic, and sustainable.
This achievement was only possible because of our transformative community. This year, Xcelerate will be able to deliver gender and culturally competent coaching, mentorship, and growth education programs to 50 MORE women-owned businesses, further fueling a circular economy of women supporting women.
A heartfelt thank you goes to the businesses who helped amplify this campaign:
We can’t wait to share more of the incredible impact our community is making possible.
With Gratitude,
Abby, Matea, Jennifer, Michelle & Day
