Will You Help Out Ballard High School Families?
We are in the midst of a pandemic that is impacting our lives unlike anything that has happened in generations. It is time for us to come together and demonstrate what the Ballard High School community is willing to do to help their neighbors.
There are many people in the Ballard High School community that were struggling before the outbreak of COVID-19 and their lives have now become even more difficult. In addition, the financial challenges that have beset much of the world have also had a substantial impact on many more Ballard families. Members of our community have lost jobs, had to close businesses, gotten sick, had family members move home and even had loved ones pass away. We love that Ballard is a community that comes together to support each other and when one of us is impacted, it impacts us all.
Today, Ballard High School, the Ballard High School PTSA and the Ballard High School Foundation are partnering to bring all of us together to make sure that those most impacted in our community know that Ballard Cares.
Ballard Cares
is a fundraiser intended to provide monthly assistance for food and basic needs for families in crisis. Additionally, it will allow Principal Wynkoop to meet the emergent needs of families in our community that are struggling with the impacts of the pandemic. This includes items like food, clothing or gasoline, but could also include a printer to allow for digital learning, rental assistance, and more.
Please contribute whatever you can, whether that is $5, $50 or $5,000 and that money will go directly to supporting families in our community.
Many of us are so fortunate to have our needs met on a daily basis, but now is the time for us to come together to ensure that EVERYONE in our community knows that Ballard Cares.
With love,
