⏰ REMINDER: Last Chance to Make a 2019 Donation to Challenge Success

Forward

Do you believe that all children should be valued for their own interests, unique talents, and individual definitions of success?

Do you find that extrinsic metrics such as grades, test scores, and selective college admissions have become the primary markers of success in your community?

Do you know that a narrow definition of success often leaves kids feeling stressed, marginalized, or misunderstood?

Do you agree It’s Time for Change?

YES, I Support Change!

As 2019 comes to a close, please take this opportunity to donate now so that we may leverage your support to further extend our impact in 2020 and beyond. With teen anxiety, stress, and academic disengagement on the rise across the country, the status quo is no longer sustainable for our kids.

Based on extensive education research, we know that kids benefit when schools partner with Challenge Success and utilize our reform strategies:

All donations directly benefit our financial assistance fund, research development, and school program expansion. With your help, we can meet the needs of schools and families that seek to improve the current student experience.

On behalf of the entire Challenge Success organization, we appreciate your commitment to our mission. A donation of any amount supports meaningful and real change.

Wishing you a happy and healthy New Year!

With much gratitude,

Kathy Koo,
Executive Director

P.S. If you have already donated to Challenge Success this season, thank you!

“Frankly, we do not have time for a ‘slow rollout,’ or to ‘take small steps’ towards a goal like this. With every year that passes, there is a graduating class that will not be able to reap the benefits of the ones after them. We owe it to students to create an open and welcoming space where they don’t feel as though their mental health must take a dive in order to academically excel.” — high school junior

Strategies for Student Well-Being and Engagement with Learning
Challenge Success partners with schools, families, and communities to embrace a broad definition of success and to implement research-based strategies that promote student well-being and engagement with learning. We believe that our society has become too focused on grades, test scores, and performance, leaving little time for kids to develop the skills necessary to become independent, resilient, and ethical individuals.
