We are thrilled to share an exciting update with you: Thanks to a special anonymous donor, Rod Day’s $50,000 matching gift challenge for the Laurada Byers Fund has increased to an extraordinary new goal of $100,000.

With this match now in place, every dollar you contribute to the Laurada fund will have double the impact. Your contribution will ensure that we exceed this new milestone, enabling us to continue providing support at the highest level for Laurada’s favorite programs for our children. These programs include the expeditionary learning model of education which helps our children to have enriching experiences outside the traditional classroom. Your gift will also support our mission which states, “…students take responsibility for their learning to become powerful communicators, creative problem solvers, and compassionate, engaged citizens.”

Every dollar you give will be matched 1:1, thanks to the generosity of both Rod Day and our anonymous donor. Your gift — no matter the size — will make a direct, lasting impact. This is truly an exceptional opportunity, and time is of the essence! The clock is ticking, and we have only 11 more weeks to meet this challenge. Your gift, combined with the generosity of others, can push us past this exciting new goal.

We are so deeply grateful for your continued commitment to the Russell Byers Charter School. Together, we are making a real difference, and with your help, we can make the most of this incredible match.
