On behalf of the Executive Director, Heather Dennis, and Anser’s Board of Directors, we bring you this special edition Flight Plan to request your support of Anser’s Annual Drive. The single most important fundraising “event” of our school year!
To date, we've successfully raised $23,500 towards our lofty goal of $150,000.
Every gift at ANY level is significant and needed. Our goal is 100% participation from all Anser families. An average gift of $250 per student would ensure we meet our goal! Consider a one time gift, or a monthly pledge for budget friendly "set it and forget it" support.
A Letter from Our Executive Director, and Anser Alumni Mom, Heather Dennis:
As Anser proudly marks its 25th year of delivering educational excellence in the Treasure Valley, I feel honored to reflect on our enduring commitment to providing adventurous and innovative learning ALL students at Anser, past, current and future get to experience. It is through the unwavering support of the Anser community that we can sustain this continued excellence in innovative education.
My Personal Story of Why I Give
My family always says we "won the lottery" the day, in Anser's second year, that my oldest son Logan's name was called in the kindergarten lottery. All three of my children attended Anser K-8, and though each was unique in their learning style, they all received opportunities to find success in their own way. Each of them experienced the spirit of Crew, the challenge of adventure, the exhilaration of having wonderful ideas and the power of service. The Design Principles of EL, brought to life in Anser's classrooms transformed them as learners. Our children are now grown, and they are amazing humans in large part due to the learning community that encircled them at Anser. Though our youngest graduated from Anser 10 years ago, I have the gift every day of seeing children develop into amazing humans because they receive a whole-child education that helps them grow their character, curiosity, and connection to others in equal parts to their academics. Anser has given me and my family so much that it is a simple choice to continue to give our financial support to the Anser Annual Drive. We give to ensure your children have the same opportunity to be transformed by the power of a learning community. Doesn't every parent at Anser want that for every student? I believe they do and hope they will join our family in supporting the Anser Annual Drive.
As we celebrate this significant milestone of 25 years, I extend a warm invitation to you to become a part of this remarkable legacy. Join me in ensuring that the unique educational journey your child receives at Anser continues to thrive year after year.
In Crew,
Heather Dennis
Anser’s Executive Director
