Happy Holidays to you and your family from all of us at Friends of Educational Excellence (FREE) Partnerships!
Our support for Rochester city schools is strong and growing this year. We are supporting 10 Rochester elementary schools with 300 volunteer. We just formed a new community partnership between St. Monica Church and School 4.
It's been very gratifying to receive recognition in the Rochester community for our work. Please check out my Speaking Out essay that was published on November 6 in the Democrat & Chronicle online.
On November 13, Rev. Dr. Marvin McMickle, President of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School in Rochester, spoke at a FREE Partnerships event. If you weren't there to hear him, you can be inspired by his pressentation by watching him here.
We are very grateful for the ongoing support you have provided to our organization. During this holiday season, I'm so thankful for all the blessings we have received. I'm grateful that so many people in the greater Rochester area are so generous with their time and money to support underprivileged children in Rochester.
If you'd like to make a year-end donation via GlobalGiving, we will use the funding to recruit and train more volunteers to tutor more Rochester students in 2013.
Happy Holidays!
