The Founding 100 was created to launch something deeper than a fundraiser — it is the beginning of a legacy.

The Lynette Louise Haughton Foundation, Inc. was established in loving memory of Lynette Louise Haughton — a devoted mother, wife, friend, and community presence whose life was defined by compassion, strength, and an unwavering commitment to her family and others. Lynette believed deeply in opportunity, education, and the power of showing up for people when they need it most.

This Foundation exists to carry forward those values.

Our mission is to:

Support girls’ softball and youth sports
Provide scholarships and educational opportunities
Assist children and families facing hardship
Strengthen community through access, care, and opportunity

The Founding 100 represents the first group of supporters who will help establish the Foundation’s foundation — financially, structurally, and missionally. These early contributions allow us to move from vision to action by funding our first programs, scholarships, and community support initiatives.

We are inviting 100 founding supporters to make a $1,000 founding contribution, creating a collective goal of $100,000 to launch our work. These funds will directly support youth programs, educational access, and families in need.

We also recognize that not everyone is in a position to give at that level. Gifts of any amount are welcomed, valued, and deeply appreciated. Every contribution helps move the mission forward and strengthens the Foundation’s ability to serve.

The Founding 100 is not about numbers — it’s about building something that lasts.
It’s about honoring a life.
It’s about creating access.
It’s about turning remembrance into impact.
It’s about ensuring that compassion becomes action.

This is the beginning.

Thank you for being part of the legacy.
