Game Changers
Who remembers the teacher or coach who changed the trajectory of your life?
At Jane's Fund, we lead children to the light by connecting with school educators like Davina who share the unmet needs and dreams of their students: an entire class, grade, or even the whole school. It's not uncommon, however, for an educator to identify one student who needs Jane's Fund's support to meet a goal. This note from 17yo Michelle, a student at Harding University High School, describes one of those powerful moments:
Dear Jane's Fund,
I feel like my whole world has turned around since I got off the phone with you and Ms. Davina. I'm sorry I ran out of words to say at the end of the call. She told me you would help but I didn't believe it. The money is due tomorrow. I will send you my fundraising spreadsheet, but I have worked so hard and am $662.00 short of the $4000 I need to spend the summer in South America. To leave our country to work and serve while learning in another is my dream come true. I will send you pictures of the school I will be working in and the people who I will train with when I return. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Michelle
Michelle's note is a great reminder that it's never too late to say thank you to the "game-changers" in our lives.
Please help Jane's Fund continue to provide educational opportunities to raise up a new generation of leaders in our community. We are grateful to YOU for making these
experiences possible.
