To The Max Day

on any GIVE TO THE MAX graphic or this link to donate.
While
Give
to the Max Day was a one-day fundraising event on November 9, 2011
that united local Maryland, Virginia and Washington, DC
communities to support nonprofits serving the area, the
opportunity to donate is available everyday. Razoo's goal is to
get thousands of local residents to support their favorite
regional charity, raising millions in donations and grants.
APTS’
goal is to raise awareness about our organization and to join
together with other non-profits in support of charitable
organizations in our area. Through Razoo.com
we hope to develop relationships with
members of our community who may not know that we exist. Razoo
also gives us an alternate platform to share information about our
fundraising events through various social media sites such as
Facebook and Twitter.
THANKS
TO ALL WHO SUPPORTED US!

Dear
friends, family, and members of the community,
As many of you know, Alternative Paths Training School is a
private, not-for-profit school for children with Autism and other
severe developmental disabilities. Since its inception, staff
members, countless friends and dedicated colleagues have worked
tirelessly to fulfill the mission of supporting our students on a
daily basis at both our Alexandria and Fredericksburg campuses.
APTS has been a great support system for so many families, and it
has provided a solid foundation for both personal and professional
development for our staff.
For most of Alternative Paths Training
School’s existence, we have managed to remain recession-proof. However,
we have been presented with a challenging scenario, one that has
no simple solution. We are challenged to find a way to endure the
tightening budgets of our referring jurisdictions yet also remain
true to our mission of providing an unmatched level of quality
support for some of the most challenging students in our area.
Essentially, we have to do more with less.
In order to continue to provide the highest level of services to
our students and their families, we need your help. Various
activities have been scheduled to raise funds for our school. Our
golf outing, walk-a-thon and Autism Awareness pledges have
generated a tremendous amount of support from many generous
donors. We are truly blessed! If you are unable to contribute
toward one of these planned events, I am requesting yet another
way to show your support: Monthly Pledges or One-Time Donations.
Alternative Paths Training School and its staff have pledged to
raise $50,000 within the next few months.
Every little bit helps.
If you or your company can possibly help along the way with
the events above, or through your pledges and donations, it will
not only help us reach our short-term goal, but it will allow us
to continue supporting our students and their families in the
future as well. APTS is a registered 501(c)3 charitable
organization and promises all donations will be used in the best
interest of our students.
APTS remains a strong, vibrant organization committed to make a
difference in the lives of our students and their families. We
hope we can count on your support and generosity.
Sincerely,
APTS
Staff
