Dear Friends:
This will be the third year that I participate in The Education Fund’s Teach-A-Thon and the FIRST where I'll teach at my alma mater. Being a proud graduate of Miami-Dade County Public Schools from elementary, middle, and high school, it is my honor to be able to give back to the very institution that helped build who and what I am today. Having been a Cavaleon yearbook editor in high school and working at the Miami Herald for more than 11 year, I am thrilled to have matched with Coral Gables Senior High School's Journalism/News Magazine & Language Arts teacher, Melissa Gonzalez. I’m excited to step into the shoes of a teacher and actually teach a lesson. There are so many challenges facing our public school teachers and students. The funds I raise go to support teachers and students in our public schools.
In celebration of The Education Fund's 40th anniversary, we want to ensure that more than 4000 public school students get the resources they need to succeed. I need your help to meet this goal! To learn more about this campaign or the work of The Education Fund, visit The Education Fund’s website at www.educationfund.org.
At this site, you will learn about the amazing Food Forests helping students improve eating habits and science scores; college & career programs that put inner-city kids on the path to success, their annual Taste of Education culinary arts competition, a warehouse that annually provides $1,000,000 in supplies for teachers and their students, and more!
Please know that your tax-deductible donation (as allowable by law) is an investment in our children’s future. Thank you, in advance, for supporting me – an Education Champion! I promise to let you know my results, assuming I ‘survive’ my day in the classroom.
