Basil Gold-Karp's Story

Did you ever think that as a 5 year old, that Basil would understand not only English but also Italian? We have his incredible public school to thank for their immersion program. In order to give Basil and his classmates the best experience at school, every year the fundraising committee collects money to put toward language enrichment materials (books and learning materials from Italy) as well as having interns (from Italy)! It would mean so much to Basil if you supported him in helping make his school as wonderful as it has always been if not better. Thank you for considering!! Here's the official message of where the money comes in: The essentials for a quality public education are free, but many of the support and enrichment programs that make Franklin special are not. Your tax-deductible donation to the BFEF (an entirely volunteer-run 501(c)3 nonprofit) funds evidence-based programs that support the needs of our students and school: IN-CLASS AIDES - Interns & language assistants (16 additional dual-immersion aides!) CLEAN AIR - Air filters for purifiers in all classrooms and indoor common areas TEACHER SUPPORT - Teacher supplies and professional development programs LIBRARY SUPPORT - Library books in all five languages and library supplies TUTORING - Dual-immersion tutoring for students who need additional support ENRICHMENT - Enrichment programs, art supplies and workshops for all students GREEN CAMPUS - Green Team maintenance and improvement of our green spaces LEARNING GARDEN - Maintenance & classes in our Sprouts Learning Garden CAMPUS UPGRADES - Facility upgrades (Kinder shade in 2023, walking path in 2024) ENRICHMENT EVENTS - Community events like the BFEF Earth Fest and Film Fest (note: BFEF events are becoming self-sustaining in an effort to preserve program funds.)
