<div>To our amazing community: Thank you for supporting our families during this time. We were able to help 29 families with rent and bills to keep them safe and connected.  As we know, ICE has decreased their presence in our state, but the effects of this occupation still linger.  Our families are still in need and the funds raised for the greater St. Paul School community cannot help our Adams community.  So, we need your help.  Raising $30,000 will help our community get back on their feet during the month of March.  We are so grateful for your generosity!

<div>Recent events in Minnesota have placed tremendous strain on many members of the Adams community. Over the past several weeks, we learned of families in need of assistance with rent and other bills as the increased presence of ICE in our state has impacted peoples’ safety and ability to work.

<div>The Adams Elementary Parents and Friends Immigration Committee is raising money to help answer these requests for assistance. Our goal of $50,000 is based on the needs we know of today, but we anticipate these requests for aid increasing over time. Please consider a gift to help support these valued members of our community. Your generosity will send a powerful message of love and solidarity; and make a tangible difference for families navigating incredibly challenging times.

<div>Formed in the spring of 2025, the Adams Elementary Parents &amp; Friends Immigration Committee was created to respond to issues at the intersection of immigration and our school community. It is composed of parents and staff working outside office hours. It is autonomous: independent from the school or its administration.
