The WiSH Education Foundation appreciates the generous contributions of our wonderful community partners who believe in the value of investing in our local public education.
In September, solita Tacos & Margaritas held a very popular pre-Cocktails on the Roof party to benefit WiSH; their second Anniversary party, also very well attended, took place in November and again supported WiSH. Manager Ken DiCross raised nearly $2,000 for WiSH between the two events! September also brought Wolf Creek Brewery’s Laina and Rob McFerren into the fold with a percentage of their sales every Tuesday evening during the month. The event raised over $1,000 for WiSH! Both also took part in the sold out Cocktails on the Roof in September.
Cobblestone Cottage provides ongoing funding to WiSH through their Chavez for Charity sales – bracelets are available for sale all year long that donate a portion right back to the foundation. In addition, Cobblestone Cottage also raises money for local public education through their Giving Tuesday promotion, this year raising over $1,000 for WiSH! Thanks to Manager Jamee Brandt and owner Kathie Allie for being a valued WiSH partner!
Jersey Mike’s owner Steve Youlios and General Manager Kyanna Isaacson, longtime education fundraisers and supporters of WiSH, have just begun a new fundraising campaign for the foundation to align with Executive Director Amy Daniels’ “Climb For Education,” in which she is raising awareness of the funding gap in public education by climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in September 2017. Every Tuesday from December through February brings “happy hour” to all Jersey Mike’s Santa Clarita locations – from 3:30 – 6:30pm, 15% will be donated to the WiSH Education Foundation!
Please continue to support all of these wonderful local businesses who care enough to make a significant difference for our young people!
WiSH supports programs and initiatives in the Hart District that are not funded by tax dollars alone. We need your help. Consider being an expedition or program partner; please contact Executive Director Amy Daniels at wish@hartdistrict.org.
