Dear Friends and Supporters,
At Academia Antonia Alonso Charter School in Newark, Delaware, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential. Our mission is to provide a world-class education to children from diverse backgrounds and to empower them to succeed in all aspects of their lives. We know that a well-rounded education goes beyond the classroom and includes fostering physical and mental well-being, teamwork, and discipline. That's why we are launching the "Do More 24" campaign, aimed at raising seed funding for our new Athletics Department.

Our goal is to raise as much funding as we can to establish an athletics program that will benefit every student at Academia Antonia Alonso. We are excited about the positive impact this program will have, and we invite you to join us on this journey.

Why Athletics at Academia Antonia Alonso?
Physical activity and sports play a pivotal role in a child's development. They promote physical fitness, teach life skills, and encourage teamwork. Our charter school enrolls students from diverse backgrounds, many of whom are English as a second language learners. For these students, athletics can serve as a gateway to increased performance in the classroom.

Improved Academic Performance: Numerous studies have shown that students who participate in sports tend to perform better in school. Engaging in sports not only enhances focus and discipline but also provides a sense of balance that translates into the academic setting. By supporting our Athletics Department, you are contributing to our students' success both on and off the field.

Mental and Emotional Well-being: Physical activity is a powerful tool in reducing stress and improving mental health. Our athletics program will provide a safe space for our students to channel their energy positively, build self-esteem, and develop important social and emotional skills. By supporting our program, you are helping us create a nurturing environment that nurtures not only the body but the mind as well.

How Will Your Support Make a Difference?
Funds raised through the "Do More 24" campaign will be allocated as follows:

Uniforms and Equipment: Ensuring that every student has access to quality uniforms and equipment, removing barriers to participation.

Coach Salaries: Attracting experienced and dedicated coaches who can mentor our students both athletically and academically.

Team Travel Expenses: Enabling our teams to compete with other schools, exposing them to new experiences and fostering a sense of pride and belonging.

Rent for a Training Facility: Securing a dedicated space for our students to train and compete, which is essential for skill development and team-building.

Your support will directly contribute to the success of our students, helping them thrive in the classroom, on the field, and in life. We believe that Academia Antonia Alonso Charter School can be a model for how athletics and academics can complement and enrich each other.

Join Us in Building a Brighter Future
We invite you to join us in this exciting endeavor. Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a significant difference in the lives of our students. By investing in our Athletics Department, you are investing in the future leaders of our community.
