We can't always change a child's circumstances—but we CAN change how they feel in the middle of them.
YES DAY is building a community of 100 founding members who believe every child deserves moments of joy, hope, and possibility.
Founding Memberships Claimed
We cannot do this without an incredible community like you.
Only 100 Founding Memberships will ever exist. Once they're claimed — this chapter closes forever. But the impact? That lasts a lifetime.
Before the YES Days
Before the stories.
Before the smiles.
Before the YES Days.
There were people who believed.
People who looked at a simple idea — bringing joy into the middle of life's toughest moments through the power of YES — and said: "YES."
The Founding YES Circle is a once-in-the-history-of-our-organization opportunity to help build YES DAY from the very beginning.
We're looking for the first 100 people who believe that joy matters.
The first 100 people who believe every child deserves moments of happiness, hope, and celebration — especially during life's hardest seasons.
The first 100 people willing to help bring the power of YES to children who need it most.
The Opportunity
Founding Membership begins with a gift of $100 or more.
Every dollar above the minimum goes further — choose the level that feels right for you.
Every Founding Member becomes part of the story of YES DAY.
Your name, your gift, your belief — woven into the foundation of this organization forever.
Permanently recognized on the YES DAY Founding Honor Roll.
Your name lives on the Founding Honor Roll for as long as YES DAY exists.
Forever able to say: "I was there from the beginning."
This is not a yearly membership. This is not a recurring campaign. This is history.
Once all 100 memberships are claimed,
the Founding YES Circle closes forever.
We are so deeply grateful for every single person who says YES. You are not just making a donation — you are becoming part of something that will change children's lives for years to come.

Because before there were hundreds of children served...
Before there were YES Days...
Before there were unforgettable moments of joy...
There were people who simply said YES.
