Not all Wednesdays come with a pat on the back, but this one does! Itās official! šļøš We received a letter from the IRS approving our non-profit status. Because of your support, we can make an even greater impact.
šA special thank you to the following leaders in our community who sent over letters of support for our application: Quinn and Cole at the Red Bud Chamber, Brandon at Red Bud Industries, Tom and Becky at Gilster Mary Lee, Lori at Southwestern Illinois College, Kelle at V8 Speed and Resto Shop, Charlie at Spartan Light Metal Products, Ryan and Andrew at RoE(s), Bonnie at St. Clair County, Pam at Monroe County Illinois Economic Development Corporation, Adam at Red Bud High School, Kacie Luhr at Luhr Crosby LLC., Cathy at Flex-Line Automation, Mark at Randolph County Economic Development, Connie at Randolph County Progress Committee.
Yes, it was tricky to upload the file with so many support letters ā I had to condense because we exceeded the size limit. š®āšØ
Itās pretty great investing in the bright futures of hardworking youth ready to build, fix and create with you all. Letās keep it up!
