Dear Friends and Families of River Forest Community Center,
We are so close!
Thanks to the generosity of our community, we have reached 85% of our fundraising goal. Now, in this final week, we have just $7,000 left to raise to reach our goal, and we are making a final appeal for you to help us get there.
For more than 50 years, River Forest Community Center has been a place where children learn and grow, families find support, friendships take root, and generations of our community build lasting connections. Many of the children who once attended our programs have returned as parents, trusting us to provide their own children with the same care, opportunities, and sense of belonging.
That legacy is worth cherishing and protecting.
Rising costs and growing demand have created a significant financial challenge, and reaching our fundraising goal will help us sustain the programs and opportunities that mean so much to River Forest families. With the recent acquisition of the Civic Center ensuring certainty and stability for our organization, your support is especially timely and crucial.
We are just $7,000 away. Will you help us cross the finish line?
Every gift brings us closer to our goal and helps preserve a place where children can learn, play, discover their potential, and feel that they belong, and where adults of all ages can share the joy of sport and play.
If you have already contributed, thank you for being a meaningful part of this effort. If you haven't yet had the opportunity to give, please consider making a gift by the end of the day this coming Tuesday, October 20th. Together, we can reach our goal and help ensure that River Forest Community Center continues serving our community for generations to come.
Thank you for believing in our mission and for helping make this community such a special place.
Warmly,
Jonathan Livingston
Executive Director
