Idaho Gives: Pardon the Giving

The Old Idaho Penitentiary and Boise Farmers Market are planning the first-ever “Pardon the Giving” event during Idaho Gives. This fundraising event features representatives from various nonprofits who will be ‘locked up’ until they hit their donation goals. Visitors can explore nonprofit booths, collect swag, and enjoy free guided tours, enhancing their understanding of each organization’s mission.

Participating organizations include: The Foundation for Idaho History, The Boise Farmers Market, City of Good, Treasure Valley Canopy Network, Boise Urban Garden School, The Bishops’ House, Simply Cats, The Idaho Foodbank, and the Idaho Humane Society.

Admission Costs: $8 for adults, $6 for seniors (60+), and $5 for children (6-12). All admissions proceeds and donations to the Foundation for Idaho History support the Ray Knight Transportation and Field Trip Fund, aiding local schools with field trip costs. Tickets grant same-day access to self-guided tours and site exhibits. Purchase at the door or online!
