The Cafritz Foundation Challenges 826DC

We’ve been challenged– again!

What an exciting year it’s been so far. Thanks to your unending support of our programs, we’ve been awarded another challenge grant by our friends at The Morris & Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation. This means that whenever you give between now and the new school year, your donation will be matched dollar for dollar, effectively doubling your impact on the lives of DC students. Donate $10 and your gift magically becomes $20. Donate $25 and your gift becomes $50, enough to publish a class full of young authors during one of our field trips. Help us raise $15,000 and succeed in the new school year by making a donation today!
