Current Events

We are approaching the end of our first year as a non-profit in Kenton. Looking back on 2024, we are proud of the work we have done! Thanks to your help - we have been able to provide a bit of disaster relief for some families, to provide some new gaming consoles for some lucky raffle winners, and contributed to a local park renovation project. We have been able to share the gift of a Thanksgiving turkey to many families, and help to feed many more with donations to community meal kitchens.

With the donations we have received, coupled with the proceeds from our XBOX Series X Raffle, we are pleased to announce our Christmas project: Christmas On Us.

This year we are providing Christmas for a local family. We partnered with local resources to identify a local family in need. We will be providing them with a full Christmas for the entire family. For privacy reasons we have chosen not to disclose the name of the family. We are providing gifts for all the kids and adults in the family, and we hope to make their Christmas brighter this Holiday Season.

Thank you again to all of the individuals and establishments in and around Hardin County, OH. Your donations and participation in our events has made this possible.

Play For Purpose

Founded in 2023 by Tom Dilts, Cruz Compton, Kevin Kapanka, and Matthew James

Our mission is to raise funds to give back to the community by means of direct charity, or by giving to other local organizations for projects that improve the lives of those in the Hardin County area. We believe "play" is an important part of what it means to be alive. We try to incorporate play in our efforts of fundraising and in our focus of giving back to the community.
