Double Your Impact with Morgridge Family Foundation Matching Challenge
We’re excited to share that the Morgridge Family Foundation has generously pledged a $50,000 matching gift to support our Annual Appeal! This gift means that every dollar donated to the Annual Appeal will be doubled, amplifying the impact you can make on our programs, community initiatives, and inclusive, play-based learning experiences we provide for children and their families.
“We are incredibly thankful to the Morgridge Family Foundation for their matching challenge and continued support of our mission,” said Oliver Zornow, President of the BFK. “Their generosity will amplify the impact of other supporters, helping strengthen our ability to serve families and build momentum for the future of play-based learning in our community.”
The Morgridge Family Foundation invests in organizations that reimagine solutions to some of today’s most significant challenges and has supported hundreds of projects through its innovative, hands-on approach to philanthropy.
Michelle Morgridge and Nate Angell, active leaders for the Foundation who focus on strengthening community with strategic funding decisions, recognized the value of the play-based learning opportunities provided by the BFK when they visited with their two young sons.
“Our family has deep ties to Wisconsin,” said Michelle. “And we love how the Building for Kids brings so much joy to kids and families through play-based activities in the arts and sciences.”
Nate added, “Making a matching gift is not only a great way to support an organization, but also to signal our confidence so others also will join in. There’s nothing like momentum to ensure success.”
You can participate in the matching challenge by making a gift to the Annual Appeal between now and December 31, 2025. Every donation during this period will be matched dollar-for-dollar, up to $50,000. Learn more about our Annual Appeal or make a donation at https://www.buildingforkids.org/support-our-mission/
