It started with leadership and grew with community.

Dear Friends of the Club,

We did it! Thanks to the generosity of more than 145 donors, our Meet the Match campaign raised $436,000—an incredible show of belief in the kids and families we serve.

We are deeply grateful for the seven dedicated donors who believed in our mission and recognized the meaningful impact we have on the lives of the youth we serve with a collectively pledged $425,000 matching gift. Their leadership and generosity helped set the tone for a truly inspiring campaign.

And they weren’t alone.

Gifts ranged from $25 to more than $50,000, each one a powerful reminder that people care about our kids, our Clubs, and the future we’re building together.

Every contribution, no matter the size, reflected a shared belief in what’s possible when a community stands behind its young people.

Because of this collective generosity:

• Our food insecurity program continued to provide reliable, nutritious meals to youth who depend on us.
• Our social and emotional wellness efforts offered safe spaces, trusted mentors, and the support kids need to grow with confidence and resilience.
• Our academic support programs were strengthened, helping youth stay on track, make progress, and reach their full potential.

This campaign wasn’t just about dollars raised, it was about people showing up, standing with us, and demonstrating that our youth matter. We are honored by the trust and care that our community continues to show.

A special thank you to the 7 match starters:

• The Seth Sprague Educational and Charitable Foundation
• The J. Douglas & Marian R. Pardee Foundation
• Keith & Pamela Fox Foundation
• Tracy Family
• Wild Wisdom Foundation
• Barbara Ann Steel Charitable Foundation
• David and Tina Thomas

 

With heartfelt thanks,
