Why Give?

With what I hope was a meaningful Thanksgiving now behind us, we are moving ahead to Hanukkah and the end of 2009. As we approach the last year of the new decade, it is certain that we at Cardin have much to celebrate, which translates to many challenges. Funding a Cardin education is an investment in Jewish continuity. Your annual gift helps to ensure that our children will be prepared to take leadership roles in Baltimore and beyond in the years to come.

Parents, grandparents, trustees, alumni and friends are aware that support for The Shoshana S. Cardin School strengthens a vibrant educational institution . As you visit classes and overhear conversation in the hallway, our commitment to pluralistic Judaism is evident. Students from many different Jewish backgrounds are both challenged and nurtured by outstanding educators dedicated to creating a passion for lifelong learning.

You have received your annual fund request by now. Please read it carefully and then respond to the best of your ability. As Cardin grows, it is essential that we build our culture of giving to include every person touched by the mission of the school.

One of the most astute writes of our time, Dr.Seuss said in The Lorax

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”
Please care!
