Subject: Help support the Corvallis Indoor Park this holiday season
Hello Friends and Family,
As we head into the holiday season, I wanted to share something that's been really meaningful for our family. It’s called the Corvallis Indoor Park (or CIP). If you've heard me talk about it, you know how much of a lifesaver it's been during those long, rainy Oregon winters. It's a place where kids can run around and play while parents connect with other families.
Here's the cool part: it's 100% volunteer-run, and 100% of donations go directly to keeping the space open and accessible. The biggest need right now is scholarships. We are trying to help families who might not otherwise be able to afford membership still have access to this community resource.
If you're looking for a meaningful place to give this season, the Corvallis Indoor Park would be incredibly grateful for any support. Even small donations make a real difference:
- $15 helps with one month of cleaning supplies
- $50 covers minor equipment and toy replacement
- $90 provides a full scholarship for a family in need
But honestly, any amount helps keep this space thriving for our community.
To donate, please visit: https://www.corvallisindoorpark.org/donate
Thanks for considering it and for being people who care about the things that matter to our family.
With gratitude,
