Backyard Dreams, the charitable entity for WAYY Sports Talk 105.1/790 AM and The Dan
Kasper Show has made a $1,000 donation to Roosevelt Elementary School in Eau Claire,
Wisconsin on July 11 at 9:30 AM at Roosevelt Elementary School.

The donation will be used
towards their fundraising efforts for their playground equipment and any gymnasium/gymnasium
class needs.

“To help create opportunities for those to enjoy their passions…”

Remember the many times when you were young and playing in the backyard and daydreaming
of what your future would look like? Like playing for your favorite team or imagining what you
would be doing for a living as an adult? We all had, and still have, those dreams. That’s how the
name Backyard Dreams was created. Kids playing at school and in playgrounds are great
examples of children daydreaming what they want to be and envisioning their future.
The 5 main goals for Backyard Dreams are:

To provide and promote opportunities for anyone to have a chance to play.
To help anyone overcome obstacles to chase their dreams.
To help raise awareness for those in need.
To help create opportunities for those to enjoy their passions.
To help those enjoy their life and create special memories.

Funds raised by Backyard Dreams have come in a variety of ways from donations from listeners
to the Kasper Classic Golf Outing, which is back again this year on August 26th at Princeton
Valley Golf Course in Eau Claire. Recipients of funds from Backyard Dreams have included The
Miracle League of the Chippewa Valley and sending a family to a Milwaukee Bucks game.
