Your Gift Can Make Summertime Memories
Written by Jodi L. Bopp, CFRE

What’s your favorite summertime memory?
Hands down – mine is going to the local community pool. My parents didn’t have a lot of extra spending money, but every summer they’d purchase a family pass so we could all enjoy the local pool as much as we wanted. It helped that the pool was an easy bike ride away and my childhood home had no air conditioning.
Maybe your favorite summer memory is going to the beach, taking family vacations, or playing summer league baseball followed by an outdoor picnic.
The children, youth and adults Boundless serves also enjoy summer recreation. And many rely on our staff and programs to make that recreation happen. Here’s where you are needed.
You can help make summertime memories for the people we serve by making a gift to the Boundless Impact Fund. Your support of the fund provides for:
- Tickets to local sporting events for the adults in our residential programs to cheer on their favorite team.
- Outdoor equipment for the children in the center-based program to play on.
- Passes to local YMCA’s to use workout equipment and, yes, even the pool.
Your gift – regardless of the amount – opens up a summer of possibilities for all the people we serve. All gifts are tax-deductible to the extent provided by law and 100% of every gift goes directly to support those we serve.
If donating cash isn’t your preference, you can purchase a specific item from our Amazon Wish List. This list is made up of items specifically requested by the children and adults we serve for them to use in our various programs. By purchasing an item from this list, you’re providing a much needed and desired item while saving Boundless the expense of purchasing it.
Whether you give from your checkbook or shop online, the donations made by generous people like you give us the tools to celebrate special occasions, make lasting memories, and open up new possibilities. Thanks to people like you, those we serve can live more boundless lives.
On behalf of those whose lives are touched by your generosity, I offer you boundless thanks.
