The Big Day of giving is here!

A spark of life ignites in our students’ eyes when they milk a cow for the first time.  There is a joy emanating from within them when they connect their food source with feeding the chickens. And a serene calm that primates when learning in the great outdoors, which plants a seed for a future steward.

Your contribution makes this all possible.  By taking part in the Big Day of Giving, you’ll empower Splash to provide quality hands-on experiences to students, ensuring that 17,750 students in Sacramento have access to nature.

Please consider a donation in the following amounts:

  • $1,000 – paves the way for one student to be a part of our Youth Environmental Leadership Camp
  • $500 – pays for 1 bus to bring two classes from a Title-I school to any Splash field trip
  • $200 – provides 1 student a full scholarship to visit the Mather Vernal Pools
  • $150 – secures 1 student a full scholarship to visit the Nicholas Dairy
  • $50 – provides maintenance to Splash’s “Critterville,” where nearly 35 animals native to the Sacramento region live.
  • $50 – provides food to feed one of our 3 Nigerian Dwarf Goats and our mini Donkey “Frosty.”

May 2nd is not just about fundraising; it’s about coming together as a community to invest in the bright futures of our exceptional students. Your generosity and support touch our hearts and fill us with hope for what’s to come.

One of our students’ words truly moved us: “Thank you so much. I didn’t even know I was learning. It’s soooo fun! I want to come back a million times. This is my first and best field trip ever! Thank you.” Your donations allow us to provide these transformative experiences that spark joy, curiosity, and lifelong memories.

Many of our students come from diverse backgrounds and have never had the chance to explore the wonders of the natural world. Thanks to you, we are changing that narrative and opening doors to new opportunities for learning and growth.

15% of our revenue comes from individuals like you! Your contributions enable us to sustain and expand programs like the Youth Environmental Leadership Camp (YELC) and Project AWE (Agriculture, Water, Energy, and the Environment), enriching the lives of our students every day.

We set a goal of $135,000 for BDOG 2024, and we are thrilled to announce that, with your incredible support, we are moving closer to reaching it! And let’s not forget the fantastic news – every donation made today is matched up to $65,000, doubling the impact of your generosity. This is a testament to the power of our community coming together for a common cause.

From the bottom of our hearts, we want to personally thank every one of you for making today unforgettable. Your kindness and commitment are not just appreciated; they are why we can continue our mission. You are shaping a brighter future for our students, empowering them to dream big and make a difference in the world.

Donate today! Every dollar will be matched up to the first $65,000 starting TODAY through May 2, 2024.
