Pre-Giving for the annual GoBigGive Campaign has opened. Shout out to Elizabeth Troyer-Miller for kicking off the giving yesterday. Our goal is to raise $50,000 for new pickleball courts in Wood River. Our Student Lighthouse has raised $1,000 so far, and we are prepared to donate that amount if we can hit $1,000 in the pre-give window or 100+ total donations. The WR Community Foundation is also matching $0.50 for every $1 donated up to $5,000. Stretch the impact of your dollars and donate early. Please share this opportunity with your friends and family - https://www.gobiggive.org/donate/WRCCF
