<div>Hello, this is Jake Halpern, president of the Wilbur Cross PTSO and I really need your help!  [Este mensaje está en español a continuación.]  Today is the launch of our BIG fundraiser, which sustains us for the entire year.  Let me get straight to the point: Ours is the largest public school in the city of New Haven and over 75% of our students qualify for free lunches.  Our building is in disrepair, our teachers are underpaid, and our programs are underfunded.  And yet, somehow, amazingly – thanks to the resilience of our students and the dedication of our teachers – our school thrives!  Our culinary program recently won a national championship, eight of our students went to Yale last year, and our principal was named “Outstanding High School Principal of the Year” for the state of Connecticut.  Wilbur Cross is a place where, despite all odds, the American Dream still flickers with hope.  But we DESPERATELY need your help to keep this dream alive.  
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our goal is to raise $25,000!  This money will fund student clubs, teams, and celebrations.  It also funds our innovative grant system.  Here’s how that works: Basically, if you are a student or a teacher with a dream – of creating a rain garden, or a yoga class, or a Dungeons &amp; Dragons club, or a Hispanic heritage festival – this money makes it possible.  We have a grant committee, within the school, where students, teachers, and administrators allocate the money directly.  This money is managed by students and teachers with the express purpose of empowering students and teachers.  (You can see specific examples of what we funded on our website, <a href="https://www.wilburcross.org/end-of-the-year-report-2024-english" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.wilburcross.org/end-of-the-year-report-2024-english</a>).  Last year we gave out 16 grants.  This year the goal is double that: 32!
</div>

</div>
<div>This charitable contribution is 100% tax deductible!  We are a registered 501c3.  Please consider making even a modest donation!  Or a BIG one!  And spread the word.  Please share this link with other parents, grandparents, neighbors, or distant relatives.  Tell them: If you want to help our city -- and our country -- be a true land of opportunity, where people come together and succeed together, then support our school!  Look at the faces in the picture above.  Those kids all have dreams.  Help us empower them!

<div>Hola, soy Jake Halpern, presidente de Wilbur Cross PTSO y ¡realmente necesito su ayuda!  [Este mensaje está en español a continuación.] Hoy es el lanzamiento de nuestra GRAN recaudación de fondos, que nos sostiene durante todo el año.  Permítanme ir directo al grano: la nuestra es la escuela pública más grande de la ciudad de New Haven y más del 75% de nuestros estudiantes califican para almuerzos gratis.  Nuestro edificio está en mal estado, nuestros maestros están mal pagados y nuestros programas no cuentan con fondos suficientes.  Y, sin embargo, de alguna manera, sorprendentemente –gracias a la resiliencia de nuestros estudiantes y la dedicación de nuestros maestros– ¡nuestra escuela prospera!  Nuestro programa culinario ganó recientemente un campeonato nacional, ocho de nuestros estudiantes fueron a Yale el año pasado y nuestro director fue nombrado "Director Sobresaliente de Escuela Secundaria del Año" para el estado de Connecticut.  Wilbur Cross es un lugar donde, a pesar de todas las probabilidades, el sueño americano todavía brilla con esperanza.  Pero necesitamos DESESPERADAMENTE su ayuda para mantener vivo este sueño.  
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>¡Nuestro objetivo es recaudar $25,000!  Este dinero financiará clubes, equipos y celebraciones de estudiantes.  También financia nuestro innovador sistema de subvenciones.  Así es como funciona: básicamente, si eres un estudiante o un maestro con un sueño (crear un jardín de lluvia, una clase de yoga, un club de Dragones y Mazmorras o un festival de herencia hispana), este dinero lo hace posible.  Contamos con un comité de subvenciones, dentro de la escuela, donde los estudiantes, profesores y administradores asignan el dinero directamente.  Este dinero es administrado por estudiantes y docentes con el propósito expreso de empoderar a estudiantes y docentes.  (Puede ver ejemplos específicos de lo que financiamos en nuestro sitio web, <a href="https://www.wilburcross.org/informe-de-fin-de-a" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.wilburcross.org/informe-de-fin-de-a</a>ño-2024-inglés).  El año pasado concedimos 16 subvenciones.  Este año el objetivo es el doble: ¡32!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>¡Esta contribución caritativa es 100% deducible de impuestos!  Somos un 501c3 registrado.  ¡Considere hacer incluso una donación modesta!  ¡O uno GRANDE!  Y correr la voz.  Comparta este enlace con otros padres, abuelos, vecinos o parientes lejanos.  Dígales: si quieren ayudar a que nuestra ciudad (y nuestro país) sea una verdadera tierra de oportunidades, donde las personas se unan y triunfen juntas, ¡entonces apoyen nuestra escuela!  Mira las caras en la imagen de arriba.  Todos esos niños tienen sueños.  ¡Ayúdanos a empoderarlos!
