Bridges to the Future Campaign

A Community Rallies When news got out that a gift to support Adventure Unlimited’s future could be doubled, hundreds of generous donors answered the call. By December 31, 2015, 474 individuals had contributed toward the $2 million Matching Challenge Grant pledged by Hank and Wendy Paulson and their family, resulting in a total of $4 million invested in the overall Bridges to the Future Campaign goal of $16.5 million. We’re incredibly grateful to these friends and to the Paulsons for their generosity and leadership.

N ew M atching O pportunity : C amperships You can continue to double your impact with a gift to the A/U Ranches Campership Endowment Fund! This long-term fund ensures that no child is ever turned away from attending camp for financial reasons. A $250,000 Matching Campership Grant from Dick and Ginny Voell will allow your gift, made before December 31, 2016, to provide twice the support for young campers.

(Hint: The Annual Fund covers day-to-day operations; the Campaign is a long-term investment in the future of Christian Science youth.)
