BREAKFAST SUPPORT (or general)
GTA has
served nearly 1,000 students in the greater Everett community during
its first ten years of operation. We want to double that number in
the next ten years! Your financial support is essential to help us
achieve this goal.
Most of
our students are from families with limited incomes or who rely
solely on DSHS for their survival. Currently, the difference
between the actual cost of running our programs averages $200 per
child per month more than DSHS reimburses GTA. In
addition, many of our teachers and support staff over the years have
served out of love for our children but, even for them, the need for
more adequate pay is essential to their continued ability to work at
GTA.
Your gift of $100 or more assures that
we can reach our annual campaign goal of $100,000 collected from
individual contributors. While we have received some grants from
private foundations and are currently working with local government
for early childhood funds, the restrictions on these grants do not
fully address the gap in basic funding for the school and its
ability to serve more children in the future.
So please
join us in celebration of our community service and
help us keep the doors open for children who need a safe, structured
educational environment with the confidence to say, “I can learn
anything!”
