On this Mother’s Day, I am grateful for you and the important work we do together. As you may know, the Partnerschools journey began with this mother (me:) and an idea, back in 2012. The idea was to expose my own children to the cultural wealth that our city has to offer. The arts provided a natural and playful opportunity to do so.
I am incredibly humbled and proud to see how far we have come since then. Our strong team curates programs, partnerships, events and other opportunities on a daily basis, and we reach up to 20,000 souls annually: all with the goal to build community and foster empathy. It takes a lot more resources than my time and passion alone to make a difference for so many children, teachers and families, so please join me in supporting Partnerschools and ensure that we can continue to open new doors and improve lives in the next school year, one friendship at a time…
With warmest wishes and gratitude,
Sonja
