Just Two Days Left - Thank You So Much!

March 03, 2020

Dear Early Bird supporters,

 

We are so honored to say that we are 95% of the way to our fundraising goal, thanks to your generosity! We have just $237 left to reach our $5,000 goal - won't you please consider telling a friend about our work? We're so close!

 

Our team is excited to launch the Early Bird pilot in Austin this spring. Trainings for clinic staff are already on the calendar. We look forward to updating you as the project progresses. Together we're going to offer higher education scholarships, financial coaching, and assistance enrolling in high-quality early childhood education for families who otherwise might not have access to these resources. Transformative changes lie ahead!

 

Onward,

The Early Bird Team

 

 

More Than Halfway There!

February 12, 2020

Thank You!

We are so excited to have already reached 65% of our fundraising goal! Thanks to the support of many generous people, Early Bird is closer than ever to launching a successful pilot in Austin.

 

Not Quite There...

We'll keep updating you as the campaign progresses. Be sure to share our HornRaiser page with friends or colleagues who would be interested in Early Bird's approach to helping families reach their goals and expand their opportunities.

 

Looking to the Future

After gathering data from our pilot, we aim to expand Early Bird to reach even more families in Texas and across the country. But we can't do it without you - we're so grateful for your help!
