Our monthly partners are fundamental to our work. Because of their steady commitment, the Children's Defense Fund can push for changes that will improve children's lives all year long and respond to urgent threats whenever and wherever they appear. That's why this Giving Tuesday, we're asking friends like you to make a commitment to children and become monthly partners: nation=form1&df_id=4642&mfc_pref=T&utm_source=appeal&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=01dec2019~givingtuesday~email~text

Tamieka Thomasson has been a monthly partner since December 2016. She is on the front lines working with children with disabilities every day. She sent me a note last week letting me know why she makes a monthly donation to the Children's Defense Fund.

Dear Sheehan,

As a special educator, I have always been saddened by the high number of children of color in special education. It is important to me that the Children's Defense Fund advocates for an equitable education system where children are given the attention they need, without being inappropriately labeled or subjected to discrimination.

The Children's Defense Fund's work, research and awareness has really spoken to me and has helped me put words and practice to my thoughts and assumptions.

Thank you for the work you do--it touches every fiber of my being and fills my heart with warmth, joy and hope.

Sincerely,

Tamieka Thomasson
Early Childhood Specialist

---------------------------------------

Tamieka works every day to give the children in her classroom a chance to thrive--and she became a monthly partner of the Children's Defense Fund to make sure every child in America gets that same chance.

Tamieka's commitment to children inspires me. If you're inspired too, please join her and become a Children's Defense Fund monthly partner today--and to show our sincere appreciation, your monthly gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar for the first 12 months!.

Gratefully,

Sheehan Whelan
Donor Stewardship Manager
