For donors

Fund a scholarship. Change a season.

Your donation covers registration fees, equipment, and uniforms so a Texas kid gets to keep playing, marching, showing, or building. Every gift goes to participation costs — nothing else.

Giving levels

Pick a level, or choose your own amount.

$25

How this form operates — Paymattic, live below in TEST mode:
  • Offers: the four monthly levels ($25/$50/$100/$250), one-time gifts, and an "other amount" field.
  • On submit: card checkout (Stripe in production — intentionally not connected in this mockup), an emailed receipt, redirect to the thank-you page, and a written acknowledgment for tax records.
  • Mockup note: recurring-donor management and donor exports come with the production Stripe connection.

Where the money goes

One support model, built to stretch every dollar.

Partner Programs Stretch Your Gift

Our partner programs offer reduced rates to scholarship recipients, so your donation covers more than sticker price would suggest.

Straight to Participation

Funds go directly to participation costs — registration fees, equipment, and uniforms — coordinated with the program a kid is already in.

Minimal Overhead

Support flows through established, existing youth programs instead of a program we'd have to build and run ourselves — which keeps overhead low.

Accountability

Verify us before you give — we'd rather you did.

Mockup notes — what this page fixes (Kobold site audit, May 2026)

Fixed here: Important #4/#5 — a donor on the old site had no mailing address, no phone, and no EIN, board, or Form 990 anywhere near the ask for money. All of that now lives in the shared footer plus an on-page accountability block, so a donor can verify who they're giving to before they give. The donation form itself is a Paymattic embed (test mode; Stripe intentionally not connected here) — once built in wp-admin, the thank-you flow lands on /nextgentx/thanks/.

Intended SEO: title "Donate to The Next Generation Foundation — Fund a Texas Youth Scholarship"; description "$25 helps a kid keep playing. Monthly or one-time, tax-deductible, and 100% of donations go to participation costs — fees, equipment, and uniforms."
