The June Stern Family Foundation -- You Can Help

THE TEACHERS THANK YOU!

“Thank you for blessing me with this scholarship! I couldn’t have taken the training without your assistance. Thank you for being committed to helping students unlock the mystery of our language. It doesn’t have to be a mystery when an Orton-Gillingham approach is being used.”
– First-grade teacher, Golden Valley

“My students are more successful, more encouraged, more informed in language, more self-confident, more independent. I cannot thank you enough for the scholarship. I have enhanced my professional skills greatly and feel so appreciative and so grateful for your generosity and kindness.”
– Special-education teacher, West St. Paul

“Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for this amazing opportunity. Your generosity will touch so many young lives through me and all the recipients of this scholarship. Thank you for helping so many to succeed.”
– Third-grade teacher, Wayzata

June 1, 2008 will mark the 95th anniversary of June’s birth. We think that’s an excellent reason to consider making a gift to The June Stern Family Foundation this year. June is remembered as a tiny woman with a big heart, who realized—in her 80s and 90s—that she could help struggling children learn to read.

There are even more good reasons to give—to celebrate your own occasion; to honor or remember a loved one; to give thanks for your scholarship; to thank your child’s teacher, who benefited from a JSFF scholarship or school grant; and to keep this wonderful work going full-steam ahead. If you designate an honoree, we will be happy to send a personalized card with the message of your choice. Please see this form for more ideas.

Just send your check to the address below, and we will reply with a confirmation of your charitable donation. If you are directing a card for a special occasion, be sure to send this form. JSFF is a qualified Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt foundation, and your donation is fully tax-deductible.
