Thanks to your support of everyday superheroes like you, we have been able to grow and evolve in order to help many individuals and families as possible. We ask that you consider donating $19.95 per month (in honor of our founding year) so that we can continue to expand our reach.
As a Superhero Donor, you will receive three e-mails throughout 2025 providing updates on the young people in our program so that you can see firsthand the difference you are making. A fourth email at the end of 2025 will include both an invitation to continue and instructions to end your monthly donation.
Follow the link to our Recurring Gift page and select the option to become a Superhero Donor! If you’d prefer to give just once, but still want to receive our Superhero updates, there is also a selection available on our One-Time Gift page.
Consider checking with your employer to see whether they will match your donation! Many employers will do so upon request, and we are happy to work with them to do so!
It’s our 30th Anniversary!
