WE NEED CORPORATE SPONSORS
St. Mary's - Winfield
School Rescue Campaign
Dear Friends of St. Mary's,
St. Mary's Home School Association has been challenged to save our school, with a strict time frame in which to do so. Through God's good graces, along with Alumni support and Corporate Sponsorship, we are confident this goal is within our reach.
We are reaching out to the Parent community affected by these closings. We strongly contend there is a need for an alternative school choice. St. Mary's is geographically located and proportionally sized to provide the private education expected by the parochial system. Overcrowding smaller schools is not the answer. Sending children to chopping block schools is cruel. Children need and crave stability in their private and educational lives. For many children, school is the only stable entity.
St. Mary's is the first Catholic School in Queens; you are part of her family, a historic piece of a school that has served the community for 147 years. We feel her history needs to be preserved, her doors opened to all who seek an education of substance.
One of our challenges has been to raise the $300,000.00 needed to just ensure the 2005/2006 school term, and it must be accomplished in a very short period of time. Any contribution you can make at this time is greatly appreciated.
Another contingency is that we need to ensure her stability over 3-5 year period. We, the parents are willing to work hard in the mission of preserving your schools continued existence, will you help us by considering a commitment pledge over this time. If you can only make a one-time donation, we are extremely grateful for your support.
When you send your donation, we request a prayer at the time you place it for mailing.
BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, PRAY FOR YOUR CHILDREN
YESTERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW
Should our mission prove unsuccessful, all donations will be returned. If you have any questions, you can contact Ms. Carol Cavanaugh at 917-922-0161 or Elizabeth Gleason at 347-245-4780 (email timzbrat@aol.com)
