On June 8th, something amazing happened at the Knibbe Ranch in Spring Branch, Texas! Just over 300 people gathered for Ribs & 'Ritas, our annual fundraiser. Those in attendance experienced a magical, God-filled, record-breaking night. The generosity of so many people was UNBELIEVABLE as we raised money to help children who have been abandoned, abused, and neglected. While we're still counting all the beans, we are excited to announce that we raised $501,643 – exceeding our goal for the year and surpassing the $1,800,000 mark in fundraising in just eight years! Finding the words to share our appreciation for the incredible generosity of so many people who made it possible is difficult. This post would be far too long if we tried to thank everyone for their contributions of time, talent, and treasure. Every dollar raised will go directly to helping a disadvantaged child. Our gross income is our net – no expenses. ALL costs associated with the event were covered by in-kind donations, underwriting sponsors, or paid by Verbalocity, Inc.. We pray that God pours out a special blessing on every person who played a role in the event's success. Friends, we raised a half million dollars for kids in need! That is amazing! From the bottom of our hearts (and on behalf of every child we will be able to impact over the next year), Heather and Clint Swindall, CSP say thank you! God is good!! #grateful #thankyou #blownaway #ToGodBeTheGloryAlwaysAndForever
关于我们
Every day we encounter friends and colleagues who grew up in loving, supportive households. An environment of love and support provided the inspiration and skills to be productive in society. There are many children throughout the country who don’t enjoy that environment, and have been victims of neglect and abuse. Many didn’t get the inspiration and skills offered by a loving family. These kids don’t need a second chance at being successful. They need a first chance. This foundation has been created to generate the financial resources to help fund children’s charities that are helping provide that first chance every single day. First Chance Foundation is a private, non-profit foundation established through contributions from individuals and clients of Verbalocity, Inc. The foundation was formed as a way to support those soundly-managed, non-profit organizations which focus on the nurturing and development of disadvantaged children.
