Trailways Camp announced that the recent matching gift campaign with Grampy’s Charities was a success. Grampy’s Charities matched every donation, up to $50,000, with the hope of reaching a goal of $100,000. There were 146 gifts made for $72,121, bringing the matching total to $144,242. Trailways Camp reported that 28 new applicants, plus 14 campers who have been waiting to return for over five years, will now have the opportunity to participate in a camp session. “From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for helping to fill the void,” it shared. Trailways Camp also extended its gratitude to Grampy’s Charities for matching every gift dollar-for-dollar. “Their partnership didn’t just fund dreams — it multiplied them,” it shared.

Adaptive tricycles are a great tool, but come at a high price. Robbies' Riders make it all possible!

Thanks to support from Grampy’s Charities and Sanibel Captiva Community Bank, Robbie’s Riders presented five adaptive tricycles, worth nearly $6,000, to Naples children through its Freedom Program at the bank’s McGregor branch in Fort Myers.

"With special adaptive tricycles, these children get to experience a sense of independence and social freedom,” said Jack Johannemann, director of Robbie’s Riders. “We are so happy to be able to bring smiles to these children’s faces with the pure joy of riding a tricycle, something many of them have never done before."
