Run, Ramona, run! Love, Papa
Good Luck Ramona! Nana loves you!!
Ramona is running in the One World Project event La Vuelta to have fun and raise money for her fabulous school. She started there at age 3, learning the foundations of Spanish and enjoying outdoor playtime, arts and crafts, music class, cooking and other activities with her wonderful teachers and friends. She is now a student in the school’s Universal Pre-K and gets to take advantage of a beautiful new backyard play area as she improves her Spanish, learns new songs and begins to write.
Because New York City does not reimburse One World the full amount it spends giving its teachers a good wage and benefits, the school must fundraise to close a six-figure funding gap every year. We appreciate anything you can give to help Ramona contribute to this worthy cause.
On Sunday, January 7 at noon we’ll brave the cold at Coney Island and jump in the ocean for our Bano Polar to support OWP.
On Friday, May 3 as part of our Half Weekend. We’ll gather at One World Project and the kids (and some grownups) will run or walk or scoot along Vanderbilt, down East 3rd, up, along Greenwood Avenue, and up East 4th. We’ll end the race with a celebration and everyone will get an upcycled medal of participation.
On Saturday, May 4 we will join half marathoners for an epic running journey.
The route starts at the 69th Street Pier and goes along the Hudson river just under the Verrazano Bridge in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
With love and care we have built a nurturing school and community center committed to learning. We want to sustain what makes OWP so special and grow our community fund so that OWP is accessible to more families. Together we’ll be working to raise $60,000 to support OWP.
We truly appreciate anything you are able to give.
