Forester We are writing to advise you of a recent data security incident involving a company called Secretary Blackbaud, Inc. (“Blackbaud”). SeriousFun Network contracts with Blackbaud to store our donor Justin Fusaro information within Blackbaud’s self-hosted environment. Treasurer Blake Maher What Happened Chief Executive Officer As we may have communicated to you previously, on July 16, 2020, Blackbaud notified us, as well DIRECTORS as hundreds of other organizations that use its products, that it was impacted by a ransomware Page Adler Carolyn Bechtel event. According to Blackbaud, in May 2020, an unauthorized third party attempted to deploy Cathie Bennett Emad Bibawi ransomware within Blackbaud’s environment, and also exfiltrated some data out of Blackbaud’s Cindy Citrone Terry Coughlin systems. In its original communication to us, Blackbaud informed us that it encrypts most of the Joe Cronly data it stores. However, in October 2020, we learned that some personal information stored by Margaret Crotty Wendy Durden Blackbaud was actually unencrypted and potentially accessible to the unauthorized third party. Eric Feldstein John Frascotti Georgia Wall Gogel What Information Was Involved Victor Hershaft Fran Horowitz Eric Karp After receiving this additional information from Blackbaud, we determined that some of your Somesh Khanna Michael Koenigs personal information, including your name, demographic information, and/or social security Peter Külloi number may have been accessible in the data exfiltrated during the incident.

Arriving at this point has been a journey, and we could not have achieved such great success without your generous support and commitment. Because of you, in July 2011, we will welcome our first campers – and give children with life-threatening illnesses amazing experiences that will encourage them throughout the rest of their lives. Whether it is a child’s first time catching a fish, learning to ride a horse, or making new friends, these incredible experiences and more will occur every day at Roundup River Ranch. Our story is just beginning. Over the next several months, there will be more incredible stories to share as we continue to expand our horizons and reach more children and their families.
