Every child deserves
an education.
Dear EEECF Supporters,
The EEECF Team would like to extend our most sincere gratitude for choosing to support our Toys for Tots Literacy fundraiser. It is people like you who are truly helping change the world!
We are writing to inform you that unfortunately, we were unable to reach our fundraising goal to complete the Toys for Tots project. Since we did not reach our designated StartSomeGood.com "tipping point" by the required deadline, all pledges have been automatically canceled. You will not be charged for your previous donation.
Although we did not reach this specific project goal, there is much more work to be done in helping underprivileged children learn to read. We implore you to resubmit your donation or to consider making a recurring monthly donation directly to www.EEECF.org. Your gift will be accepted immediately through EEECF, without a third party "tipping point" or waiting period required to complete the transaction.
As a supporter, we will keep you informed of current Foundation activities through periodic project update emails. Once again, we deeply appreciate your choice to support literacy for those who need it most. Your financial gift means the world to a child in need!
Sincerely,
The EEECF Team
Give a child the gift of literacy for only $0.55
Our Foundation aims to provide 20,000 children with Little Reader early literacy kits. These software-based kits will be donated to the Toys for Tots Foundation who will distribute them to low-income families in addition to the traditional Toys for Tots gifts and books.
By contributing to the Toys for Tots project, funds may also be used to further other EEECF international literacy projects around the world, as needed.
So where do YOU fit in the picture?
We have already received scholarship (at no cost) for the Little Reader software licenses from BrillKids Inc., but our Foundation will be responsible for covering both the cost of production for the physical discs and the cost to ship them to the Toys for Tots Foundation and abroad.
We need funding to make that happen, and for that we need YOUR help!
Every contribution, great or small, can potentially be THE donation that changes a particular child's life forever, taking them from at-risk to one step ahead.
Learning to read empowers children to break the cycle of poverty through education, so join us in making a difference in the lives of the children who need it most today!
20,000 of these software-based reading kits will be produced, shipped and donated to the Toys for Tots Foundation this coming Christmas.
Tipping Point Goal: $5,500
Total Funding Goal: $11,000
Each kit will cost just 55 cents, which includes production, shipping and all transaction fees from our Start Some Good campaign.
This means if we reach our tipping point goal of $5,500, will will be able to produce, ship, and donate 10,000 reading kits. And if we reach our total goal of $11,000, we'll be able to produce, ship, and donate a total of 20,000 software-based reading kits.
