Subject: Join Me In Getting Kids READY For School!
I’m excited to announce that this summer (Insert Company or Team Name) is partnering with Communities In Schools of Central Texas to raise funds for students in our community who need supplies for the upcoming school year.
The mission of CIS is to empower students to succeed in school and achieve in life by connecting them with caring adults. This transformative relationship helps students gain access to individual and group counseling, tutoring services, and basic needs support for themselves and their families. When children have the tools they need to overcome barriers like poverty, hunger, and poor mental health, they can unlock their potential and go on to not just survive, but thrive.
CIS serves 100 elementary, middle, and high schools in the Central Texas area, helping students and their families navigate the complex and stressful issues that they are facing. With initiatives like the Ready for School Supply Drive, CIS can ensure our in-school staff has the necessary resources to meet the unique basic needs requests on their campuses, including supplies like pencils, notebooks, clothing/uniforms, clear backpacks, and more.
I’d love for you to join me in spreading the word about the CIS Ready for School Drive by joining my team as a fundraising champion or sharing our team page with your network! CIS families are working hard to make ends meet, but we can all use an uplifiting hand sometimes. Help me make sure that ALL students show up for the new school year with the tools they need. With you as part of my team, we are sure to make this campaign a success. Here are the details:
What: Raise funds for the CIS Ready for School Drive

Hello!
This summer, I’ve committed to helping students get the supplies they need to be successful in school. Every year, Communities In Schools of Central Texas hosts the Ready for School supply drive, and this year's fundraiser more important than ever as families work to adapt to a new normal.
The students and families CIS serves need help dealing with the complex and stressful issues they are facing. With support from the community, CIS connects students with critical resources and transformative relationships to help them during difficult times. When I was thinking about people who might be willing to help me raise money to purchase supplies for kids, you came to mind. Would you be willing to donate and help me reach my fundraising goal?
Every dollar counts! If you’d like to help, you can visit my page and make a donation here: (Insert Your Fundraising Page Link)
You can also leave a message about why you decided to donate – I’d love to hear from you!
Thank you so much for considering joining me in supporting students in our community, and helping me reach my goal! I couldn’t do it without you!
Sincerely,
