Season of Giving

During this season of giving, please consider a gift to support STLF.

 

Author: Irene Fernando, STLF

"STLF has expanded my horizons... I have discovered cultures and friendships I never thought were possible.  I have strengthened pre-existing relationships and even repaired a friendship that was very broken.  STLF provided me with the absolute best experience of my life.  Never have I felt more like myself and able to be 100% real with people."     - Becca Picha, Student Leader

STLF’s ‘Word of the Year’ is DISCOVER.  Every summer, our student leadership comes together to discuss what STLF needs the most in the coming year.  Students chose discover because it represents the energy of the organization, the impact of our programs, and the action of our students. 

2009 has been an incredible year for STLF:

·         2,524 students discovered more about themselves and the world by participating in STLF programs.

·         387 students discovered the power of collaboration and leadership by leading an STLF program. 

·         251 unique communities discovered the inspiration of youth because of Pay it Forward Tour community service projects.

In 2010, we will continue to expand our staff and broaden our reach, ensuring that more youth can experience STLF programs.  We attribute the possibilities of the year ahead to your support and dedication.   I would like to share one more number with you:  1,126.  This is the number of donations that have helped make STLF programs possible this year.  Please consider adding to this number by making a financial contribution to STLF.

For first-time donors, your donation will be matched in full.  For past donors, the amount of your donation greater than your largest past gift will be matched in full.  This match is made possible because of the support from the Smikis Foundation and David Winton-Bell Foundation.   Thanks to GiveMN.org, you can donate online WITHOUT any transaction costs.  Click here to visit STLF’s Page.

As the year comes to a close in this season of giving, we thank you for believing in the power of youth.  You help us move closer to STLF’s vision of energizing generations of servant leaders.
