As we jump into the weekend, we want to extend our gratitude to educators, administrators, and school staff for identifying families to provide resources from the Coronavirus Relief Fund. Thank you for all you do! https://t.co/hekgAS0dBe

Congratulations to our teachers who had 27 @DonorsChoose projects funded on GivingTuesday! Thanks to donors from across the country and our innovative teachers, over $24K was raised to support projects.

We have 22 days left in this month of generosity. This year, the Coronavirus Relief Fund has raised more than $725,000 in support of PPS students and families. Let's keep the momentum going! https://t.co/hekgAS0dBe

We're resuming the countdown this week with an overview of the impact of the Coronavirus Relief Fund: 86% of the funds raised went to families with students of color, 84% of recipients were directly economically impacted by COVID-19, and 83% of families are food insecure.

As we enter into the weekend and inch closer to the holidays, remember our students and families. The countdown continues! https://t.co/hekgAS0dBe

In the words of Sitton's Principal, Dana Nerenberg, "I realize that it isn't always easy for families to ask for help, so when they do, our team wants to be able to provide them resources quickly and without a lot of complication..." Your gift matters! https://t.co/hekgAS0dBe

We want to extend the opportunity to share the holiday cheer with PPS students and families with 30 days of generosity! This month, each gift will go directly towards supporting those affected by the health crisis and economic impacts of the pandemic. https://t.co/hekgAS0dBe
