We want to thank so very much our Pick.Click.Give contributors. Our report shows that we have contributors from the upper Mat-Su Valley to Kenai. Many chose to remain anonymous. Thank you also to our regular donors, those who bought pillows, and our grantors MEA Roundup and Bishop's Attic II. Your donations and grants have provided small but very significant and timely support for children of charitable need.

Comments From Our Mentors And Scholarship Recipients
SB made sure to sign up for a Level 2 lesson on the next trip...to the slopes.
MO loved snowboarding so much he stayed on the mountain...in wind and snow. . An 8 year old who was able to continue figure skating contributed to her team's First Place.
Another skater was able to make an astute educational paradigm shift: to anticipate accepting the challenges of learning new things at practice. She, too, was a member of the winning team.
A sedentary teen was reportedly able to shake off his depression to try skiing. He was nervous but took the risk. He interacted with community sponsors engaged themselves in winter sport activities and observed their caring about kids and their health and well-being.
A high school student who has difficulty with physical coordination developed self-confidence through 2-3 hours of horsemanship lessons and care of horse. Reports are that the confidence she gained has become apparent in other aspects of her life.
A guardian stated over the phone that the entire household was getting a good night's sleep ever since their two young foster children were in gymnastics.
