RECAP OF EVENT
Members and Supporters,
It is with much appreciation that we send this note for your support of the Jefferson Sportsman Society and its recent fundraiser. It was no doubt a huge success and may even have set a record. That record was almost $15,000 after expenses.
Importantly, with your tremendous support, we immediately donated $5,000 to Camp Manitowish that was part of a matching grant. This year’s contribution will support over 12 foster children from SOS Villages to attend camp in summer 2024 and in addition 2 Family Camps will visit Camp Manitowish.
The balance, $10k, is being used to enable the JSS, and its generous supporters, to fund camperships in perpetuity with an endowment. This major step forward can positively affect the lives of many children for so many years to come.
As we reflect on our shared success, 12 years fundraising and 112 camperships, one cannot feel more excited for the future of this triad – SOS Villages, Camp Manitowish and the Jefferson Sportsman Society.
None of this would have been possible without the JSS members, the active supporters, and our shared mission in loving memory of Chris Bacigalupo.
On behalf of all those kids…THANK YOU!
The Jefferson Sportsman Society
