Dear Friend,

I hope this message finds you well.
I am writing to share an important opportunity that aligns with our collective vision for supporting youth in our community.

At Florida Recovery Schools, particularly within our River Oak Center:
We are committed to empowering and guiding the futures of hundreds of youth in northeast Florida.

This year, we anticipate working with up to 200 students within our program school, along with an additional 500 to 600 youths within the wider community.

These young individuals receive vital counseling and recovery support tailored to their needs.
  
Achievements:
We have achieved a commendable 91% graduation rate among eligible students enrolled in our program.

These services are extended to our students and their families without any financial burden.

Need for Support:
The demand for our services continues to grow.

Our monthly expenses are approximately $20,000, expected to increase to $30,000 due to the rising number of youths seeking our services.

To sustain and expand our impactful work, we rely on:
  - Private philanthropy (50%)
  - Student Vouchers (50%)

How You Can Help:
Your generous contribution can significantly impact the life of one youth enrolled in our program.
Consider making a donation:
  - Lump sum gift
  - Recurring monthly donation of $25, $50, $75, or $100
  
Gratitude:
Your support is paramount in addressing this crucial community need and facilitating the continued success of our programs.
​
I am deeply grateful for your consideration and support in advancing our mission.

Warm regards,

Dan Renaud
