Fundraising Letter of Appeal 2020

Read our fundraising letter of appeal to see what we've been up to and how you can support us!
Spring 2020
Dear Friends, 
​

We sincerely hope this letter finds you, your friends and family and your co-workers doing well and staying healthy. Within the last few months, Empower Her has continued to remain socially distanced, but we have been able to carry on virtually: 
  • Continued accepting applications for our GIRLS Scholarship
  • Held an after school girls club 
  • Had our Annual Board of Directors meeting 
  • Set up a relationship with the Quinnipiac University Softball Team
    Due to COVID-19, we did not want the abrupt end of high school for many senior girls to affect their chances to apply for our GIRLS Scholarship and wanted to acknowledge that some may have faced financial hardships so we extended the deadline by two weeks and added an additional scholarship this year, to give out a total of three. We also established a connection with the Quinnipiac University Softball team to create a mentorship program for middle school-aged softball players. Both teams faced the hardship of losing their season and for the younger girls, it was their last Little League Season. One QU softball player said, “I hope to help inspire the younger generation to follow their dreams and teach them about life both on and off the field and all of the joys playing the sport can provide.” Empower Her is very excited about moving forward with this collaboration. 
We are asking for your support to help us continue with Empower Her’s programs and scholarships both virtually and once we are able to get back out into the community. We are hopeful to raise our GIRLS Scholarship Fund awards to $400 next year and our Christina’s Heart Scholarship to $250 per child in need.  If you choose to donate to our general fund, your gift will provide unrestricted funds that impact every program, girl and woman at Empower Her.
Our innovative signature programs focus on body image, self esteem, leadership, friendship, kindness, community service, health and nutrition, media literacy, economic literacy and personal support. 100% of your tax deductible donation goes to your donation choice at Empower Her. And you can even double your donation by using your company’s donation match program!

Thank you for supporting Empower Her throughout our journey to connect with, encourage and support the women and girls in our communities! 


Sincerely,

Danielle Beerli, MSW
Executive Director
