Funds in Children & Youth

Hi, I'm Coach Manny. Please help support a Chollas Lake Little League (CLLL). CLLL is a local San Diego Non-Profit I am on the Board of Directors for. I am also a Manager/Coach of my sons Rookies Baseball Team. For over 63 years, CLLL has served the College Area and Oak Park neighborhoods of San Diego, providing baseball for children ages 4 to 14. Located at 6005 College Grove Drive, this entirely volunteer-run, non-profit organization focuses on community-based, affordable youth sports, offering baseball programs "Tee-Ball" for the youngest players and multiple divisions for developing skills. Feel free to take a look at our program here. https://www.chollaslakelittleleague.com/. Thank you for your consideration.

Link to their site and what they do: https://www.leergeldgeldrop.nl/ In the Netherlands 1 in 12 kids are growing up in poverty. Without support these kids tend to end up at the sideline of civilization. Stichting Leergeld Geldrop-Mierlo & Heeze Leende wants to invest in a sustainable way in the contribution of those children to society and in their development. Mission: The mission is to prevent social exclusion of kids from 4 to 18 years old coming from families living in poverty. They offer these kids the chance to participate in activities inside and outside of school which should be very normal for kids.

My name is Roxanna, and I am a senior at Harriton High School. I’m reaching out to request your support of Dr. Harriton and to invite you to partner with me as a sponsor for our 19th annual show, which will take place on February 20th, 2026, at 6 PM. Dr. Harriton is Harriton High School’s largest event, attracting over 1,000 attendees annually. Featuring student performances, talents, and exciting acts, the event raises funds for local charities. Thanks to the incredible generosity of sponsors like you, we’ve raised an average of $60,000 each year for deserving causes. This year’s show we will honor the legacy of Massi Agosti, a Harriton student and founder of the Jerseys4Kids Foundation, who passed away after his own battle with cancer. Proceeds from the show will support: ● The Lower Merion Township Scholarship Fund: Offering scholarships to make education more accessible for local students. ● Jerseys4Kids Foundation: Continuing Massi’s mission of brightening the lives of children battling cancer by providing signed jerseys and supporting pediatric cancer research. ● Cradles to Crayons: Providing local disadvantaged children essentials, such as clothing, toys and school supplies.

Help Children Overcome Barriers and Build a Brighter Future

Supporting these eager and adorable kids for exploring new technologies and innovations, aiming for them to help the broader community in all means possible.

Hello, thank you for visiting my Bright Funds page! I am so excited to run the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon on November 1, 2026 with New York Road Runners (NYRR) in support of Team For Kids! Team for Kids is a team of adult runners who raise funds to support New York Road Runners youth and community programs. Your donation will help empower youth and communities to develop and encourage healthy habits via running. Together, we can build healthier lives and stronger communities through the transformative power running. Thank you again for joining me in support of this great cause. Our finish line is active kids and communities!

Every Child Deserves a Chance – Let’s Make It Happen!

In 2013, I ran my first marathon as a St. Jude Hero. In 2015, I did it again. Both times, I carried the names, the stories, and the strength of children fighting for their lives. And those experiences have never left me. Now, over a decade later, I’m preparing to run my 12th marathon — the 2026 London Marathon — and once again, I’ll be running as a St. Jude Hero. This isn’t just another race for me. This is a full-circle moment: representing an organization that has profoundly shaped my running journey, on one of the world’s most iconic stages. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is changing the way the world understands, treats, and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. And families never receive a bill — not for treatment, travel, housing, or food — because all a parent should worry about is helping their child live. I’ve set an ambitious goal: to raise $10,000 for the kids of St. Jude. Every mile I run — every early training morning, every sore step — is for them. Your donation, no matter the amount, becomes part of that journey. As one of my favorite quotes says: “You are truly your own hero in running. It is up to you to have the responsibility and self-discipline to get the job done.” I'm ready to get the job done — not just for myself, but for something bigger. Thank you for supporting me, for cheering me on, and for standing with St. Jude. With gratitude, Sarah

유쾌한반란은 청소년과 청년이 실패를 두려워하지 않고 자신의 꿈을 향해 담대하게 나아가도록 돕는 사회혁신 조직입니다. Joyful Rebellion is a social impact organization that empowers young people to take bold steps toward their dreams — without fearing failure along the way.

Prevention and education is possible. The number one cause of death in children ages 1 to 19 is firearm related injury.

Hello, I am a St. Jude Hero! I have chosen to run for a reason bigger than myself by fundraising for the kids and families at St. Jude. I am training to cross the finish line on race day and with your donation we can cross the fundraising finish line together because the money you donate helps find a cure for childhood cancer. Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food - because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago. St. Jude won't stop until no child dies from cancer. St. Jude freely shares the discoveries it makes, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children. Donate today to help me reach my goal. Even when the race is over, the fight to end childhood cancer continues.

Let's support our colleague Torge Petersen run NYC Marathon on Nov 2. 2025. He is raising awareness for Coalition for Healthy School Food while representing FMC spirit of supporting the community. Your kind support is greatly appreciated. FMC will match your donations.

Since 2014 I have been raising money for the Children's Hospital of Colorado through an annual event known as Extra Life. Extra Life is an organization dedicated to raising money for children's hospitals around the nation through fundraising events. Over that time we have raised over $16,000, all of which have gone directly to the improvement of sick kids' lives. While everyone is encouraged to raise money anyway they want, the primary method most do is through a marathon livestream, where the participants play games! Whether it be video game, card games, table top games or others, people tune in to watch and even join in on the fun. These streams traditionally go for around 24 hours! I used to a 24 hour event every year, until I had a child, and now I can only do 16 or so! Which I will be doing live on November 1st, starting at 7am MST and going until at least midnight (or maybe even 1am). All the while we will having a rotating cast of interesting characters come by, we'll play games that even the audience can join in on, and most importantly, raise money! We will be streaming live form my Extra Life page here: https://www.extra-life.org/participants/Mark-Birdsall-Thomas. You can watch and even participate from there! We will have games that members of the audience can join in on! If you have anyone else in your life who would like to donate, you can send them that link. However, as Squarespace employees, we are all allowed $600 worth of matching donations! So, if you are reading this and would like to donate, I would recommend donating here to get that sweet matching donation! The $3000 goal here is to match the $3000 goal on my Extra Life portal with hopes we will reach that combined total across the two platforms! If you have any questions about this, or want to learn how you can join Extra Life on your own, reach out to me and I'd be happy to talk about it!

Saving Children from Slavery & Abuse in Ghana

Its Summer! This means, the 2025-2026 school year is upon us. For many families, this is a stressful time, especially for youth residing in NE Oklahoma City. Their primary struggles are food and shelter, with school shopping never being an exciting event because for many it never happens. This Summer, we aim to add a little joy to the fears and first day jitters, by providing students with backpacks filled with supplies, at no cost to them. We accomplish this by gathering school supplies such as backpacks, pencils, crayons, notepads and more. This Summer, we are also accepting donations through Bright funds, with all proceeds going directly to the "Sox of Love," and helping to provide school supplies for their upcoming event scheduled; August 16th 2025, 845am-1230pm, at the "Laundry Station Express," located at; 1538 NE 23rd St. Oklahoma City OK. Be sure to include your first/last name when making a donation.

The Easton Area Community Center offers an 8-week, full day summer camp for the children in the area. We offer them the summer camp at a fraction of the average price compared to the rest of the state, taking into consideration they are coming from low income, and single parent homes. We do this with a heavy reliance on donors and sponsors. The 8-week program cost $2,500 per child, with us charging the families only $400 per child. We count on partnerships with programs in the area, corporate donations, and profit we make with our fundraisers to help cover as much of the cost as we can. Each year the cost is increasing, and those willing to sponsor are fewer and fewer, which makes it an increasingly difficult task.

Every child has the right to a safe and healthy childhood, and every child deserves to reach their full potential. But across the globe, gender inequalities continue to present considerable challenges for women and girls. Advancing gender equality strengthens economies and builds stable, resilient societies that give all individuals the opportunity to fulfill their potential. While strides have been made to close the gender parity gap, today 119 million girls who should be in secondary school are not. Every year, 12 million girls are married before their 18th birthday. And more than 800 women die each day from preventable complications in pregnancy and childbirth. To tackle the challenges facing women and girls, UNICEF is working around the world to advocate for their rights, to help meet their basic needs, and to expand the opportunities available to them. With your support, UNICEF can continue its efforts to accelerate gender equality and empower girls and women across the globe. Join us in relentlessly pursuing a better world where every woman and girl is healthy, educated, protected, and respected. Unrestricted donations help UNICEF provide vital aid to children worldwide and will be directed to the area of greatest need.

Today, millions of children continue to be caught in humanitarian crises that are growing in complexity and scale. Over 473 million children now live in areas affected by conflict. In conflict and disaster, children suffer first and most and are especially vulnerable to disease, malnutrition, and violence. UNICEF works to protect and assist children during emergencies, including refugee and migrant children, children caught in conflict and those affected by natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides. We are present in over 190 countries and territories before, during, and after emergencies, preparing, responding, and re-building with local communities. Examples of UNICEF’s humanitarian response include: State of Palestine: The aid blockade since March 2025, combined with more than 18 months of war and surging hostilities has caused devastating physical and mental impacts on children and their families in the State of Palestine, including alarmingly high casualties and displacement. UNICEF and partners are addressing the humanitarian needs of children and their families in a challenging humanitarian and security situation. During the January to March ceasefire, UNICEF scaled up its response and delivered nearly 1,000 truckloads of life-saving supplies into the Gaza Strip. UNICEF and partners had provided safe water to over 1.5 million people, cash assistance to 133,189 people, treated over 6,300 children for acute malnutrition, and vaccinated nearly 603,000 children with polio vaccine. Sudan: Ongoing conflict in Sudan has created one of the world’s largest humanitarian crises for children. Over 15 million children are in need of humanitarian assistance, with 11.3 million people displaced. As of March 2025, UNICEF and partners have screened 1.7 million children under five for malnutrition, with over 100,000 admitted for treatment of severe acute malnutrition, reached 1.2 million children with education opportunities, and provided mental health and psychosocial support to 1.4 million children and caregivers. UNICEF also helped 3 million people gain access to safe water and delivered 850,000 vaccines. Ukraine: UNICEF has been present in Ukraine since 1997 and expanded humanitarian assistance for children and families after the escalation of the war over three years ago. In 2025, UNICEF helped over 1.7 million people access safe water, reached more than 85,000 children with education support, and provided mental health and psychosocial care to over 44,000 children and caregivers, and equipped 900 health facilities received vaccine storage equipment. Inside Ukraine, UNICEF is ensuring children have access to health care, nutrition, education, safe water, mental health support, and more. In refugee hosting countries, UNICEF works with governments and local partners to strengthen national systems that provide refugee children and marginalized children from host communities with quality education, healthcare, and protection services. From to Yemen to Myanmar, Democratic Republic of Congo to Syria, UNICEF is relentlessly responding to emergencies in countries around the world. With your support UNICEF can continue this critical work providing children with lifesaving services. Unrestricted donations help UNICEF provide vital aid to children worldwide and will be directed to the area of greatest need.
