“Nancy Villarreal is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside,” said Naperville mom Sara Reifsteck, founder and executive director of Bounceback, a nonprofit that assists qualifying families with the high cost of participating in sports activities.
“She’s a fabulous single mother with two lovely girls who are very active in sports. She found out about Bounceback and it just made so much sense to her to help us,” Reifsteck added.
“Nancy’s girls are fantastic softball players and she knows cost does not discriminate. What I love about Nancy is that she has a heart of gold first, but second she wanted to work for Bounceback when she found out about us.”
The volunteer organization expresses appreciation for Nancy’s many talents as she is always trying to help Bounceback raise awareness through her community of friends and family.
“Nancy shares all of our social media posts. As a nonprofit we, of course, want brand recognition and Nancy’s help definitely succeeds,” said Reifsteck. “She was terrific selling our raffle tickets last year and tries to make as many of our events as possible.”
When setting the mission, Reifsteck said she founded the organization to help keep kids on the fields and off the streets by providing families in tight situations with financial support and equipment donations to enable their children to participate in sports.
“But this has really impacted people such as Nancy, too. Our tasks at hand are really needed more than we thought,” said Reifsteck. “Bounceback thanks Nancy for all she has done for our organization and her continued amazing support.”
