For 25 years, Thrive has provided information and education to a generation of parents, support and resources to a generation of families and caring mentors to a generation of kids. In 2010 alone there were 561 children in CAP, 240 girls from all over the state at the Girls for a Change conference and thousands of parents who participated in Parent Place activities like Dynamite Dads or worked with a Parent Liaison or a Partnership Project Family Support worker. Our programs have been proven to ensure strong families and successful children which results in thriving communities. We have been invited to present our model at national conferences and are having conversations with state leaders about replicating Thrive programs in other Montana communities. Thrive was voted Bozeman’s Best Non-Profit for a third year in a row.
We benefit from the time and talents of over 700 volunteers, an amazing board, a remarkable professional staff, strong collaborative partners, and the unending support of local business and individuals. We each have a role in ensuring that families are strong and children are successful so that our community continues to thrive. A generous benefactor recently committed a $50,000 challenge gift to Thrive, to be donated in its entirety if Thrive raises $50,000 in new or increased matching funds by Oct 31, 2011. With your help we will achieve this goal. This is a great opportunity for Thrive, during tough economic times, to maximize your donations and maintain and grow our five signature programs: The Parent Place; CAP; Parent Liaison; Partnership and Girls for a Change.
If you have ever benefitted from one of programs now is the time to give! Even if you have never participated in our programs but benefit because our work makes this community a better place, now is the time to give!
If you are interested in helping the children and families in our community thrive please make a donation today!
