First Shiloh Youth Foundation Inc

We are excited to participate in this year's Give 716. Fundraising will begin at 7:16 p.m. on Monday, July 15 and will run through 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, July 16.

The goal of Give 716 is simple: to unite Sabres and Bills fans with the Western New York Community in an epic day of giving! Nonprofits deliver for our community every day, so let's come together as one team, for one day, and become a symbol of generosity not only for our local community, but for the world. Give 716 will bring together individuals, groups and businesses in support of any nonprofit headquartered or providing services in one of eight counties to include Erie, Niagara, Orleans, Genesee, Wyoming, Allegany, Cattaraugus and Chautauqua.

Please support our organization with a donation during this year's Give 716. We are thrilled and honored to be participating amongst so many organizations who are also doing incredible things to make our community a better place!
