It has been an unbelievable year for Nine13sports; the growth we have experienced has been breathtaking. In 2014 we transitioned from a young nonprofit startup with a unique idea, into a well-recognized brand that is on pace to have 20,000 youth interactions by December 31.
None of this would have been possible without the unwavering support of the Indianapolis community and our corporate partners. The impact we have been able to make on the students we have been privileged to work with has been powerful. Students have begun to understand health and fitness because of the bicycle, and push themselves to achieve health related goals. Time and time again we have experienced the genuine joy students feel when they see our bicycles roll off the trailer and into their physical education class and the excitement in participating with Kids Riding Bikes programming.
But our work is far from done, and the year is far from over. We have set an end of year fundraising goal of $9,013. Money raised through your contribution will create an additional 1,500 youth interactions through our Kids Riding Bikes program. Your contributions will be used to subsidize program costs, allowing us to provide our services free of charge to schools. As always, donations to Nine13sports are a tax-deductible charitable contribution.
You can easily make donations through the website at www.nine13sports.org/donate.
On behalf of Nine13sports, we ask you consider making us part of your year-end giving. Any amount you are able to contribute will go directly towards our programs, promising to create a more fit generation of youth through our engaging physical activity.
Sincerely,
Tom Hanley
Executive Director
