LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Impact. Empower. Inspire. We continued to live our core values and fulfill
our mission as we wrapped up our first season of
TRF Camp Build with weeklong camps in Gallatin,
Tempe, and Austin. What a transformative
experience for our campers where they gained not
just experience working with tools and building, but
confidence and competence. Bravo to the entire
TRF Camp Build committee and volunteers for a
job well done! Our sponsor partners supported
not just financially and with in-kind donations,
but also by providing volunteers to share their
knowledge and skills with this next generation
of potential builders. If you are interested in
reliving camp, check out our YouTube channel.

Thank you to our volunteers who continue to
positively impact the community through service
days. Our Rosendin and MPS teams volunteered
with troubled teens, wrote letters to the military,
fed the hungry, fed families with children facing
critical health issues, cleaned up veteran retreat
centers, collected books, and gave their own
lifesaving blood. If you are interested in helping
to plan a local service activity, please reach out
to the local TRF Communication Committee
Representative and join our local team. Join us
to get out into our communities to positively
impact communities, build and empower
people, and inspire innovation.

In addition to serving our community,
TRF's Grant Making Committee is
hard at work reviewing the 262
annual grant applications that were
received. We saw a 74% increase
in applications over last year with a requested
value of over $7.8M. The Committee is allocating
$620,000 to the selected local nonprofits that
positively impact our communities, build and
empower people, and inspire innovation. In
the Q4 newsletter, we will share information
on the 2023 Annual Grant recipients.
