Hi friends! As we start to transition into August and back to school month, I hope you'll take a moment to consider donating to The ROCK. I love this organization with my whole heart, and I truly believe in what we do. My goal is to raise at least $500.

Our mission is that every youth has the opportunity to live their potential. In a world that can be so isolating, where are kids truly able to do that? Educators are overwhelmed at school; parents are stressed out at home. Out-of-School Time programming provides a safe, fun third place where making connections with each individual kid is a top priority as we simultaneously introduce them to activities they might not have experienced otherwise. Just this summer, our campers got to try blacksmithing. How cool is that?! With your help, we can continue to provide our students with new experiences.

It costs $19.50 per student per day for us to provide mentorship, food, homework help, STEM activities, SEL activities, crafts, games, and everything else that goes into programming. Please help us close that gap so we can continue to keep youth thriving! A financial gift of any amount makes a difference. And if you can't provide financial support, please consider sharing.

Thanks
