Superheroes Campaign $84.00 a month makes you a Superheroine or Superhero!
When we opened Rosie the Riveter High School, we made a commitment to students that we would provide them with:
- Ongoing relationships with caring adults
- A rigorous academic program
- Access to an education that lead to college or careers requiring certification
- A structured gang free refuge, that encourage creative and free flowing activities and
- An opportunity to become involved in their communities, through community service
However, in order to keep our promise,we need your help, convinced that within each of us resides a hero, a person dedicated to making the world in which we live, a place where equality and justice prevails. I ask you to close your eyes in memory of the hero (real or fictional) that made a difference in your life; think about the traits that made them your hero/heroine, grab those traits and hold them close to your heart, and unleashing the hero/heroine from deep within yourself.
As the hero/heroine within you unfurls, think about the young women that are waiting for a hero today, with them in mind, we are launching our “Super Hero and Heroine” campaign and I invite you to become one of 100 Super Heroes and Heroines that will contribute $1,000.00 (or more if you are so inspired) to help keep the hope and dream of a better tomorrow alive in 100 forgotten and down-trodden adolescents who deserve the opportunity to become the best that they can be with the mentoring and support of caring, unselfish adults.
$1,000.00 tax-deductible, donated by you, will allow us to re-open the doors, figuratively and literally, and fill our classroom with 100 students who have drop out of school and possibly society. Your donation will help 100 students live a more productive and contributing life within our communities. Can you believe it? ONLY $1,000.00 will save 100 “at-risk” students.
Your tax-deductible pledge will help us reach our goal. Enclosed please find your pledge card, where you can commit to a single payment or 12 monthly easy payments of $84.00/month. We accept checks, money orders, or credit cards. Please make your checks payable to Rosie the Riveter High School c/o WINTER and also check for matching funds through your employer. Many companies have matching programs which you may not be aware of.
