Inmate To Inspiration
CornBoil 216 is Gift2U Resources Unlimited's signature annual community celebration and fundraising event that brings together families, businesses, community leaders, and supporters for a day of food, music, entertainment, fellowship, and giving back. More than just a fundraiser, CornBoil 216 is an opportunity for the community to come together, celebrate hope, and invest in the lives of individuals who are working to overcome difficult circumstances. Through live performances, activities, great food, and community engagement, attendees help make a lasting impact while enjoying one of Cleveland's most unique summer events.
The mission of Gift2U Resources Unlimited is to restore lives, rebuild communities, and create pathways to self-sufficiency and ownership. Every dollar raised through CornBoil 216 directly supports individuals who often arrive at our doors with little or nothing—no home, no job, no reliable support system, and often no hope for a better future. Through accountability housing, workforce development, entrepreneurship training, financial literacy education, life-skills coaching, and homeownership preparation, Gift2U helps people move from surviving to thriving. Your support of CornBoil 216 helps us continue providing the resources, opportunities, and encouragement that transform lives and strengthen our community.
