Dear
Friend
--
Today marks the 25th anniversary of public charter
schools. And while it most certainly is a day we've spent celebrating
the fantastic accomplishments of these great institutions, it's also a
reminder for us at the NC Values Coalition of why we champion issues
like school choice or parental sovereignty in education to begin with.
Simply put: because
of children.
Whether it's fighting for school
choice, or defending life in the womb, our sacred concern is that of
the future and well-being of our nation's youngest and most precious
members. What more sobering responsibility could there be upon our
generational shoulders than ensuring their safety and goodwill? What
chiefer function could a government have—and whatever role we citizens
have in it—than ensuring the common good of kids?
And what greater tragedy can there be
than that the cost of our political opponents' quest for ideological
victory comes by robbing babies in the womb of their life; or children
in our public schools of their innocence; or parents in their homes of
their primordial God-given authority over government to oversee the
moral, spiritual, physical, and intellectual discipleship of their
children?
When we fight for values in the public
square, we're not fighting simply to win. We
fight so kids can literally experience life, love, and
liberty.
It's a pretty serious ordeal; but it is
also a great joy! As Jesus said, "Let the little children come to
me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such
as these" (Matthew 19:14). What a joy it is for us to say to King
Jesus that our faithful service all these years has been in the very
spirit of that liberty!
This
year the NC Values Coalition is celebrating an anniversary of our
own: our 10th year of faithfully fighting alongside patriots, pastors,
and parents for the common good of our
children.
And that's something to
celebrate! While we'll be celebrating with you in person at our
Celebration of Carolina Values 2021 event (which we'll share details
with you soon), we hope you will celebrate our 10 years of joyful
labor by helping us make this year our most impactful
yet.
We're excited to share that in this spirit of celebration,
a generous donor has approached us and offered to match and
DOUBLE every dollar donated to our efforts defending
childhood innocence and the rights of parents to oversee their
children's education.
Would you consider joining this
generous donor in celebrating 10 years of protecting family values and
parental rights by a $10, $25, $50, $100, or more donation
today?
Blessings,
Tami Fitzgerald
