FEW: A Helping Hand
We are so enthusiastic over the outpouring of support, interest, and involvement in initiative of the FEW: A Helping Hand community service project were FEW has adopted two schools in New Orleans, Louisiana area. FEW members have demonstrated their generosity by giving back to help others with this year long initiative to provide needy children with resources they so greatly need such as books, supplies, and uniforms. We ask that each of you continue to help us help those in need with this year long initiative which will culminate with the NTP in New Orleans. One hundred percent of your donation goes directly toward providing items such as supplies, and uniforms to each school. Our goal is to raise $5000 for each school. This initiative will culminate with the 2010 NTP in New Orleans. We are asking for your support in this most worthy endeavor. We can meet this challenge! Donations are tax-deductible. The two schools in the New Orleans Public School System that FEW has adopted are McDonogh #35 College Preparatory Senior High School and Mary Bethune Elementary Literature/Technology School. New Orleans 's McDonogh #35 Senior High School serves grades 7-12 in the Orleans Parish School District. McDonogh #35 strives to develop students into a new generation of leaders who possess a love for truth, the critical intelligence to pursue it, and the courage to articulate it. Their mission statement is to encourage academic excellence for all students in challenging and interactive programs that are supported by teachers, staff, students, parents, community.
