Gift The Good Ship MollyPop to brighten LaMision's future!

Tax deductible
Thanks to your donations for Molly's 80th Birthday, we began transforming this hull into a fun schoolyard climb-on. It will be painted with bright, fun scenes from La Mision Beach area and modified to make to make it a safe playground attraction to bring joy to children for decades ahead!

Along side the boat will be a plaque recognizing the many volunteers who've helped elevate local education. The BECA committee helped transform our area from one without a high school, where kids barely got through 6th grade -- to a community with a thriving "prepa" and over 100 University graduates! Doctors, dentists, social workers, artists, chefs and teachers tell us they fondly remember their first Santa toy -- and their chance to have an education. We have the highest percentage of high-school graduates in the state -- and have become a magnet for families seeking educational opportunities for their children.

Contribute $ 100 or more and your name will be added to the plaque!

We're taking donations through Future Wave, our nonprofit 501(c)(3) educational organization so your contribution can be tax-deductible! This is the same nonprofit we used to raise funds for the Santa project.


With your help Santa Arthur was able to give thousands of kids toys each year. For 20 years kids were awed by having Santa come to them!

Your donations will first be used to finish decorating the boat, preparing a safe playground site and transporting it to the local school. Then all the rest of the funds will go to enabling even more children to get scholarships!

Please spread joy to children while promoting education!

Warmly,

Arthur Kanegis
