Please join me in giving the gift of play this holiday season by sponsoring a PLAYpass for an under-resourced child in our community. Without a PLAYpass, many under-resourced children do not have access to sports & recreation programs that help them thrive with a healthy, active lifestyle. You can directly support a child’s ability to get out and play in the new year through the gift of a PLAYpass today: www.playboulder.org/give-the-gift-of-play.

Help PLAY Boulder reach our goal of sponsoring PLAYpasses for 20 children this holiday season! The program has received more need than ever before, and we need the community’s support to move children off of the waitlist. For $250, you can Give the Gift of Play to an under-resourced child who otherwise would not have access to valuable sports & recreation programs. Please visit www.playboulder.org/give-the-gift-of-play to gift a PLAYpass today!

This holiday season, give the gift of PLAY by sponsoring a PLAYpass for an under-resourced child in the community. Not only will your contribution enable a child to access sports & recreation programs that foster their wellbeing and an active lifestyle, but it will greatly reduce financial stress on low-income families and empower parents with tools to give to their children. Please visit www.playboulder.org/give-the-gift-of-play to gift a PLAYpass today.

As we near the end of the year, there is an urgent need for support of PLAY Boulder’s PLAYpass program. The program received more applications than ever before, and the current demand exceeds PLAY Boulder’s funding. Without community support, PLAY will have to turn down applications for the upcoming PLAYpass session, meaning many under-resourced children in Boulder will not have access to valuable sports & recreation programming. Can we count on your support to move another child off the waitlist this season? Please visit www.playboulder.org/give-the-gift-of-play to gift a PLAYpass today.

URL Tips for Social Media Posts

If you’d like to include a link to the Gift of a PLAYpass donation page in your social media post, here’s a couple tips for how to make the URL most easily clickable on each social media platform!

Use this URL to copy and paste into your posts to direct people to the donation page: https://checkout.square.site/buy/6JMRQIYRMHXKXWKYV3YBE36F

Facebook Posts

Facebook automatically turns URLs written in the text of a post into a clickable hyperlink. By simply writing or copying & pasting the donation page link into your post caption, people will be able to click on that link and be redirected to the donation page.

Twitter Tweets

Just like to Facebook, Twitter also automatically turns URLs written in a Tweet into a clickable hyperlink. Just write or copy & paste the donation page link into your Tweet, and people will be able to click the link and be redirected to the donation page.

Instagram Posts

There unfortunately isn’t a way to make a URL written in an Instagram post caption clickable. You can still include the donation link in your caption so people can see it and type it into their browser themselves. Or, you can add the donation page link to your Instagram profile. If using this method, you can ask people to “click the link in the bio” in your post caption to suggest they go to your profile, where they will find the clickable URL in your profile information.

Instagram Stories

When creating an Instagram story, there is a quick and easy way to add a link button that will be easily clickable by your followers! See the photos below for a step-by-step tutorial of how to add a button link to your Instagram story.
