Individuals make a difference to FSS programs by closing the gap between government funding and what programs actually cost to run. Our programs are more effective because individual supporters help fund the high-quality social work support, Early Intervention services, and School Based Childcare we provide. High teacher–children ratios, the provision of program-critical transportation, investment in technology, qualified nursing support; these costs are defrayed by people like you.
The Annual Fund allows you to give at the level you feel is most appropriate for you or your family. You may donate on-line via a secure link or you may download a donation form.
As an annual fund donor, you will not get a lot of extra mail, and we will not share your name with other organizations. We communicate with our annual fund donors through two newsletters and an annual report. To get a taste of what our newsletter or annual report is like click on the highlighted word to download a text file.
Some of our Annual Fund donors are children and students. They elect to give some of their birthday, holiday, confirmation, bar or bat mitzvah monies to a larger cause because they are leaning about social responsibility.
Plain and simple; our supporters are people who care about children and wish to make an investment in improving their lives right now.
