It is September. School is underway – for most. But who hasn’t heard of children with no school to call their own. Children in Monsey, Lakewood, Five Towns, Brooklyn, Queens. Children all over the tri-state area. And the numbers increase each year just as tuitions increase annually.
Child IN-Tuition is here to facilitate the community’s support for children who would otherwise be left with no means of receiving a Jewish education. Today’s firm stance by countless Yeshivos to refuse entry when parents cannot manage tuition payments, or even going as far as to expel students innocent of any wrong doing other than having parents fall behind in tuition payments, has created a crisis of overwhelming proportions as staggering numbers of children are finding themselves shut out of school and unable to receive a religious education. Innocent children are forced to bear the brunt of the emotional burden and left feeling like outcasts, unworthy and unaccepted making it no wonder so many take to the street, spurning the lifestyle that has spurned them as irreparable damage is done to the fragile physic of a crushed child denied social acceptance through no fault of his own.
Child IN-Tuition tuition assistance is available on a nondiscriminatory basis, the only common denominator being grave financial need for elementary aged children. Special arrangements are made with schools making it possible for every dollar to go further.
Please join Child IN-Tuition by becoming a joint sponsor of a child. During the Partners in Pupils opportunity, contributions will be matched up to $25,000, requiring only $1,500 to guarantee a $3,000 scholarship award. All proceeds will go towards meeting critical tuition need.
