Punts for Purpose logo

Raising a healthy baby in poverty is hard.

Since 2023, Punts for Purpose has raised more than $202,000 to provide lifesaving support for over 200 vulnerable mothers and babies. This season, Bradley Pinion is pledging $1,000 for every punt downed inside the opponent’s 20-yard line and $2,000 for every punt downed inside the opponent’s 10-yard line.

Join the movement and give every punt a bigger purpose.

Your Contributions Are Stewarded Wisely

Every gift you give through Compassion is handled with integrity and care. We follow strict financial guardrails to ensure accountability, transparency and the flexibility to invest wisely for long-term impact.

We invest every dollar in one of three ways

  1. Implementing our program today

  2. Inviting the next child (and their supporter) into the program

  3. Sustaining and enhancing our ability to deliver excellent programs

These investments are typically referred to as “Program,” “Fundraising” and “Administrative” expenses, respectively. Compassion’s rigorous annual strategic planning and budgeting process determines the resources allocated to Program, Fundraising and Administration. Our policy is to ensure that 75 to 82 cents on the dollar will always be allocated to Program expenses.
