Back in May of 2015 I was working away like I do most days. A meaningful family life, driving success at work, and putting some time toward JUMP in the evening because it is my passion. Passion is important. Some days you find it internally, but on this day it found me. I went to the JUMP PO Box to pick up the mail. It was a Saturday morning. I had one piece of mail, pictured below. To this day, I do not know who sent it. What is clear is that the donor was moved by what we do. I framed this because the message that came with it affirmed our work. I pull it out when I need inspiration.
This week we raised $400 toward our Challenge Grant match and are at the halfway point. We will make our goal by September 30th and more importantly, will provide opportunities to our youth that come with the possibility of a life transformed. No donation is too small and every kid is important. Do what you can.
