We cannot thank each of you enough for your support throughout this entire process and going forward. In 2025, our organization will fully participate and be represented at THREE very important conferences and we once again need your help in funding our efforts.

The Americans United for the Separation of Church and State's (AU) Summit for Religious Freedom (SRF) is held in the Washington, D.C. area. The 2025 summit will take place April 5–8, and provides a unique opportunity for us to reach other organizations that are helping to defend the Separation of Church and State. We will present a one-hour breakout session that will help to spread the word about Lifewise Academy and Christian Nationalism in the U.S., as part of our effort to build a network and slow this down.

The SRF features:

The Network for Public Education (NPE) National Conference is an event that advocates for public schools and their students. The 2025 conference will be held in Columbus, Ohio on April 5–6, 2025. The theme of the conference is "Public Schools: Where All Students Are Welcome" and we can’t think of a better place for our organization to be represented. We will have a five person panel representing our organization to present their experiences, expertise and differing points of view. This conference is a giant opportunity for awareness.

The third conference we've been invited to host a break out session at is the American Atheists 2025 National Convention from April 17th- 20th in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is a unique experience that brings one of the most diverse line-ups of speakers of any atheist, freethought, or secular convention. Special guests and speakers include politicians, poets, international secular activists, and many more.

In order for us to be present there are a myriad of costs associated such as airfare, transportation, hotel accommodations, registration fees, document printing, meal costs, signage and incidentals. We’ve estimated that the conventions will cost around $7500.00.

Anything we raise beyond this amount will be used to further develop our organization and continue to fight for religious neutrality in public schools- going forward we will need to ask for contributions to this cause. “Thank you” doesn’t suffice, we want you to know that you are helping us take giant leaps forward and we are endlessly appreciative. We care tremendously about what we have built as a community and are grateful for you. We want to continue to fight for you, but we need your help. Please donate if you are able.

Thank you!
