失家兒少繼續就學 Education Continuation Program for Youth Without Family Care Fund
失家兒少繼續就學計畫 對多數青少年來說,15 至 18 歲應該是懷抱夢想、想像未來的年紀。 然而,對一些曾在育幼院長大的孩子而言,人生的道路卻截然不同。 當他們離開安置體系後,往往不再有家庭的支持,必須獨自面對租屋、工作與生活開銷。在這樣的處境下,繼續升學往往成了一件「奢侈的事」,而學費更是沉重的負擔。對失家兒少而言,追求升學夢想,有時意味著必須在 生存與學習之間做出艱難選擇。 透過 「失家兒少繼續就學計畫」,我們希望確保這些努力自立的孩子,不會因為經濟困難而被迫放棄自己的未來。 為什麼您的支持很重要 教育,是翻轉貧困最重要的力量之一。 如果缺乏支持,許多離開育幼院的年輕人只能選擇休學工作,勉強維持生活;但若能獲得適當的協助,他們就能繼續完成學業,為未來建立更穩定、自立的人生。您的支持,能守護孩子 受教育的權利,也讓他們有機會勇敢追尋屬於自己的未來。 您的捐款將如何幫助孩子 本計畫募得的經費,將用於提供失家兒少在求學過程中的重要支持,包括: • 學費與學雜費補助 • 書籍與學習相關教材費用 • 課業輔導與學習支持 • 社工專業陪伴與就學輔導 社工將陪伴每一位孩子,協助他們在生活困境中仍能穩定就學,或在中斷學習後重新回到校園。我們希望透過這些支持,讓經濟困難不再成為阻斷孩子學習機會的原因。 您的支持,能帶來改變 您的每一份捐款,都能為孩子帶來實質幫助: • 500 元 可支持書籍與學習教材費用 • 1,000 元 可提供課業輔導與學習支持 • 2,000 元 可協助一名學生的重要學費支出 每一份善意都在幫助一位孩子繼續完成學業,走向更穩定、充滿希望的未來。 Support Education for Youth Without Family Care For most teenagers, ages 15–18 are a time to dream about the future. But for some young people who grew up in residential care, life looks very different. Once they leave the care system, many no longer have family support. They must find housing, work, and manage daily expenses on their own. In these circumstances, continuing their education can feel like a luxury, and tuition becomes a heavy burden. For youths without family care, pursuing higher education often means facing a choice between survival and studying. Through the Education Continuation Program for Youth Without Family Care of Chinese Children’s Home and Shelter Association (CCSA), we help ensure that these young people do not have to give up their dreams simply because of financial hardship. Why Your Support Matters Education is one of the most powerful ways to break the cycle of poverty. Without support, many youth leaving care are forced to suspend their studies in order to work and survive. With the right assistance, however, they can stay in school, complete their education, and build stable, independent lives. Your support can help protect their right to learn and give them the chance to pursue the future they deserve. How Your Donation Helps Funds raised through this program will support youth without family care by providing: • Tuition and school-related fees • Books and learning materials • Tutoring and academic support • Professional social work guidance to support continued education Our social workers work closely with each young person to help them stay in school or return to their studies when life challenges arise. Together, we can ensure that financial hardship does not take away their opportunity to learn and grow. Your Impact Your generosity can make a meaningful difference: • TWD 500 helps provide books and learning materials • TWD 1,000 supports tutoring and academic assistance • TWD 2,000 helps cover tuition and essential education costs for a student Every donation helps a young person continue their education and move closer to a stable and hopeful future.

St. Jude Heroes London 2026 Marathon Fund

St. Jude Heroes London 2026 Marathon Fund
In 2013, I ran my first marathon as a St. Jude Hero. In 2015, I did it again. Both times, I carried the names, the stories, and the strength of children fighting for their lives. And those experiences have never left me. Now, over a decade later, I’m preparing to run my 12th marathon — the 2026 London Marathon — and once again, I’ll be running as a St. Jude Hero. This isn’t just another race for me. This is a full-circle moment: representing an organization that has profoundly shaped my running journey, on one of the world’s most iconic stages. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is changing the way the world understands, treats, and defeats childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases. And families never receive a bill — not for treatment, travel, housing, or food — because all a parent should worry about is helping their child live. I’ve set an ambitious goal: to raise $10,000 for the kids of St. Jude. Every mile I run — every early training morning, every sore step — is for them. Your donation, no matter the amount, becomes part of that journey. As one of my favorite quotes says: “You are truly your own hero in running. It is up to you to have the responsibility and self-discipline to get the job done.” I'm ready to get the job done — not just for myself, but for something bigger. Thank you for supporting me, for cheering me on, and for standing with St. Jude. With gratitude, Sarah

Extra Life 2025 - Raising Money for the Children's Hospital of Colorado Fund
Since 2014 I have been raising money for the Children's Hospital of Colorado through an annual event known as Extra Life. Extra Life is an organization dedicated to raising money for children's hospitals around the nation through fundraising events. Over that time we have raised over $16,000, all of which have gone directly to the improvement of sick kids' lives. While everyone is encouraged to raise money anyway they want, the primary method most do is through a marathon livestream, where the participants play games! Whether it be video game, card games, table top games or others, people tune in to watch and even join in on the fun. These streams traditionally go for around 24 hours! I used to a 24 hour event every year, until I had a child, and now I can only do 16 or so! Which I will be doing live on November 1st, starting at 7am MST and going until at least midnight (or maybe even 1am). All the while we will having a rotating cast of interesting characters come by, we'll play games that even the audience can join in on, and most importantly, raise money! We will be streaming live form my Extra Life page here: https://www.extra-life.org/participants/Mark-Birdsall-Thomas. You can watch and even participate from there! We will have games that members of the audience can join in on! If you have anyone else in your life who would like to donate, you can send them that link. However, as Squarespace employees, we are all allowed $600 worth of matching donations! So, if you are reading this and would like to donate, I would recommend donating here to get that sweet matching donation! The $3000 goal here is to match the $3000 goal on my Extra Life portal with hopes we will reach that combined total across the two platforms! If you have any questions about this, or want to learn how you can join Extra Life on your own, reach out to me and I'd be happy to talk about it!
