Inspiring kids to love the outdoors - Yampatika!

Before I tell my story...

I will provide a dollar match for every dollar I can raise on CO Gives Day. Thank you! Make sure you Clic

k on the "CO GIVES DAY" button to ensure your gift happens on Colorado Gives Day. 

Also, be sure to select "Summer Camps at Legacy Ranch" if you file taxes in Colorado and want to obtain a Colorado Child Care Tax deduction. You will receive a 50% tax deduction against your CO tax liability (i.e., if you donate $1,000, you will get a $500 tax credit!). This is in addition to any federal tax deduction you may get, depending on how you file. For those who file taxes in CO, this is an INCREDIBLE incentive and makes your support even more affordable =)

OK...my story...and some great pictures!...

I initially got involved with Yampatika due to my passion for the wilderness and my desire to ensure my kids could learn to be stewards of our precious environment. I joined the board when I realized how much impact this organization has on both children and adults, creating leaders and inspiring action to ensure our wilderness remains a treasure for generations to come. I recently became Board President, and feel stronger than ever about our mission, our organizational leadership, and our future opportunity to increase our impact throughout Northwest Colorado.

In the context of today's technology dominated environment, outdoor education is even more critical. Unfortunately, due to the challenges of rising costs, combined with the exceptionally high demand for our services, we need your help now more than ever to ensure we can continue our programming. A successful Colorado Gives Day is critical for our 2023 programming agenda...we need your help!

Please join me in supporting Yampatika during Colorado Gives Day. Every dollar helps...thank you for your support!
