Hi John,

This Giving Tuesday, let’s remember the power of community in creating lasting change. Amid the many messages you may be receiving today, take a moment to see how your contribution can make a real difference in the fight for education justice.

As we look ahead to the threats posed by a new federal administration, we know that the challenges our schools and communities face are far from over. In fact, the uncertainty surrounding our systems of care and federal education funding makes our work here across New York State even more urgent. 

Your gift today fuels our Advocacy Day on February 4, 2025, when we’ll gather in Albany to demand fully funded public schools and access to well resourced child care for all New York’s children. Your support will help cover essential costs. A recurring gift of $25 per month funds:

• A bus seat for 5 people going to Albany on February 4 

• A meal for 20 parents, students, and community members

• Printed materials to share with legislators 

• Language interpretation to ensure every voice is heard 

Will you stand with us this Giving Tuesday to fight for a more just and equitable care and education system?

Creating lasting change requires resources, and resources require funding. With your help, we can mobilize parents, students, and community leaders to demand the equitable funding our schools and early education needs. By supporting this movement, you’re investing in a better future for all New York’s students and children —regardless of where they live or their background. 

Will you join us in ensuring that, no matter what challenges lie ahead, every child in New York gets the quality education and care they need to thrive?

Thank you for your continued support. Your generosity today helps pave the way for a brighter future for every child.

In solidarity,
