Hi [NAME],
As you may know, I am involved with a college success program called Hartford Promise, an organization that seeks to transform the lives of thousands of Hartford students through an integrated college success model that provides them the financial resources, support services, and key relationships that lead to college success and economic mobility.
In just six years, Hartford Promise has supported more than 800 deserving students and families as they strive for college success despite financial hardship, systemic inequalities, and, in most cases, blazing their own path as first generation college students. This work is changing lives, and Hartford Promise is committed to building out their network of support throughout the city of Hartford, with all colleges that have Scholars enrolled, and beyond.
Over the past year, as so much of the world was forced to shut down and many of our Scholars were faced with tremendous pain and uncertainty, Hartford Promise proved to be stronger than ever. Shifting almost immediately to a virtual Integrated College Success model, they were able to persevere and serve their Scholars during the pandemic by raising over $200,000 in emergency needs funding, offering virtual office hours for on track Scholars and current college students, and partnering with Aetna to provide Hartford Promise Scholars with invaluable mental health services.
I have witnessed the power of this work firsthand and would love for you to learn more about Hartford Promise from the enclosed/attached materials or introduce you to the staff themselves. Hartford Promise’s programming combines $20,000 in scholarship with invaluable support services designed for lower income, first generation college goers, and the results are life-changing. Attached you will find a more detailed overview of Hartford Promise and below are some short, poignant videos.
Enjoy, and if you’re so inspired to make a contribution to this wonderful organization as a part of our year-end appeal, please donate! Your support enables Promise Scholars to fulfill their dreams of succeeding in college and beyond.
