Planned Giving
Planned giving enables you to help ensure that in the future, WriterCoach Connection volunteers will still be sitting side-by side with students, just as they are today, to help the students develop writing and critical thinking skills.
What exactly is planned giving?
Planned giving is a pledge to make a future gift to WriterCoach Connection™ through the program's parent organization, the nonprofit Community Alliance for Learning. (Federal Tax ID: 91-2144555.)
Why do it?
You make a planned gift to express ongoing support for a program you believe in, so that WriterCoach Connection will be there for students and teachers in years to come.
