Proceeds benefit U.S. Dream Academy, Inc.
From COVID-19 to racial inequality, our children are unduly burdened with heart-breaking concerns like “will I ever go back to school?; will I be next?; will I one day say I can’t breathe?” Sadly, for many of our children who have a family history of incarceration and/or are already falling behind in school, the current crises compound their undeservedly high levels of stress and anxiety. Constructive support and encouragement poured now into their current mental and emotional wellness, will likely favorably alter their future well-being and dream path.
The resurgence of the current social justice movement seems to have prompted questions from a broad spectrum of genuinely concerned people: “What can we do to help ease some of the concerns of our children have? How can I make a difference”?
You can help raise funds for the mission and work of the U.S. Dream Academy as they currently provide online mentoring and virtual support to over 500 DreamKids and DreamTeens. Programming and funding of this work has strategically accelerated to a virtual platform. The requisite technology commands the next level of fundraising. This is where you can both help and make a difference…
…I challenge you to join me in a virtual fundraising foot race! Beginning July 12th, I will walk 70 miles by November 15th
No worries, you have the option to lace up those running shoes or simply sponsor/donate any amount to this crucial cause.
THE CHALLENGE OPTIONS:
FUNDRAISING GOAL: $70,000
In addition to supporting operation of all of U.S. Dream Academy’s programs from elementary through high school, funds will be used in particular to help purchase devices such as Kindles and other necessities to help our children obtain internet access so they can participate in summer classes that will keep them from falling behind academically; better yet, help them to be one step closer in their own race towards their dreams.
Sincere gratitude,
Sandra L. Randolph
Chair, Board of Directors
