“Thank you for the financial aid that you have sent for my trip to Wrestling Camp in Oregon and the Pinnacle/Outward Bound Program with which I will be backpacking and canoeing in Washington. I am glad to inform you that I have been accepted to both these programs and am very excited to start.
Moreover, I have gone to a Ropes Course hosted by the Outward Bound Program to prepare myself for my trip in Washington. There I learned the importance of trusting strangers and following instructions. I am very grateful that I am going to be able to attend the wrestling camp. Thank you for the opportunity that you have helped me obtain.”

“I wanted to thank you very very much for the shoes. Literally I cried when receiving the shoes because I was so happy! I know it sounds cheesy that a person would cry for shoes but I did. I’m so thankful that someone thought about my comfort and safety. I really can’t express how grateful I am with words.”

– Cassandra, loves sports and needed new athletic shoes
