This annual, online giving day, MIDLANDS GIVES, has helped us for the past 10 years raise the funds that have provided for the purchase of the rubberized surface on our playground, our family support conference room, our indoor sensory playground, and much more!
WHAT ARE WE RAISING MONEY FOR?
Our goal this year is to raise $40,000 to fund commercial grade playground equipment system the "Butler Overlook" ($30,000) in order to benefit the most children safely and inclusively.
In addition, we would like to increase the number of swings (our most popular activity) from 2 swings to 5. This will require the 2 bay swing set ($2,600) and 2 new ADA swing seats ($500 each). For this new arrangement, we will also need 7 rubber mats ($100 each) to go under each swing and slide. We're also hoping to replace our shade sails! It's almost summer so this is the perfect time to upgrade and refresh our playground!
POWER HOUR DID YOU ASK?
f you give between the hours of 6-10am on May 7, you're helping us win the $2,000 prize from Schmoyer and Company for the organization with the largest number of unique donors during the "Get Up and Give" segment of the day. Every donation counts! The minimum donation is only $10! We have two matching gifts this year! The Cheerful Giver through the Central Carolina Community Foundation ($5,000) and an anonymous donor ($10,000) have generously provided a matches for up to $15,000! So we're practically halfway there!
Thank you for your support!
