The Giving Challenge is LIVE April 15-16, noon-noon! For the next 24 hours, every gift of $25–$100 to Children's Guardian Fund is matched dollar-for-dollar by The Patterson Foundation.
When we asked teens in our care what a $100 gift card meant to them, their answers stopped us in our tracks:
"I'm going to buy gifts for my family."
"I'll use it for food."
"Clothes and shoes — things I actually need."
These aren't wishes for luxuries. They're wishes for basics — and for the chance to give back to the people they love.
Your $25 becomes $50. Your $100 becomes $200. Give now and double your impact for foster youth in Sarasota County.
