Hi Ashley,

 

We're just ONE DAY away from the BIG day of AQE's year!

 

At a moment when public education and our values of equity and justice are under attack, the work we do has never been more urgent. By supporting events like our annual fundraiser, you're helping us become a stronger part of the wall pushing back against these threats, allowing us to stand more united for a stronger, more just education system for every child.

 

It isn't too late to join us at this year's Champions of Education celebration, tomorrow, November 14, from 6:30 to 9pm ET at the DCTV Firehouse in New York City. This is your chance to show some support to the incredible champions who have gone above and beyond to ensure access to a quality education for New York's students.

Will you join us and our honorees?

  • Senator Shelley Mayer, Chair of the New York State Senate Education Committee
  • Speaker Adrienne Adams and Education Chair Rita Joseph, New York City Council
  • The legacy of Norm Fruchter, education equity champion & co-founder of the Campaign for Fiscal Equity
  • Adriana Alicea, Tracy Jordan, and Tajh Sutton, New York City parents & education advocates

A very special thanks to our event co-chairs, listed below.

We can't wait to see you for what's sure to be an inspiring evening of celebration and solidarity!
