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.

Here's something that might surprise you about teens in foster care: When you give them a gift, many of them immediately think about who else they can share it with.

At a recent Children's Guardian Fund holiday event, teens in foster care received gift cards. When asked how they'd use them, response after response said the same thing: "I want to buy gifts for my family." "I'm getting something for my little brother." "I want to get my mom something nice."
These young people have faced circumstances most adults would struggle with. And yet, their instinct is generosity.

The 2026 Giving Challenge is happening soon. It's the 10th year of this 24-hour giving event, and The Patterson Foundation is matching every donation of $25–$100 to participating nonprofits, dollar-for-dollar. Over the past nine Giving Challenges, our community has raised $92 million.

Let's match these kids' generosity with our own.
