Goal #4: Central Texas as a Community Prepares Children to Succeed
- Join the Speaker’s Bureau – get the Blueprint message out!
- Donate used computers to schools
- Help us leverage the religious community
The Blueprint will never be successful until people across the region are part of it. You can help us to get the word out by being part of the Speaker’s Bureau!! We have CD’s with the Blueprint Video, a Power Point slide deck, logos, and talking points. Take one and get the Blueprint message out at least 2 times in the next 6 months – just get back with Amanda to let us know when and where!
Our school districts always need extra computers. We can recycle working computers that are made excess through organization refresh programs and donate to a student who needs access, or for parent centers, tutoring, and other critical needs. And if you donate it through Austin Partners in Education through their Education Waterfall Project, you can specify the receiving district and help to train students in certified compliant computer refurb technology skills at the same time! Email technology@austinpartners.org to donate, or call Edward Furstenau @ 512.637.0986 for information.
One of our best ways to link education success to strong families and communities is through our faith-based communities. Parent access to schools and grades through computer after church; consistent messages from the pulpit; focused supports on our most needy families can all happen through churches. Be a part of making it happen!
