Student Needs Help Covering BRATS Transportation to Attend Summer School

We have a student in our Impact program at CF Taylor School who is currently a senior and is credit deficient due to a number of circumstances out of his control. He would benefit greatly from attending summer school at Impact. Transportation is needed to get him here. We are needing financial assistance for BRATS to pick him up from home and transport him to school and back home this summer for 20 days of classes. The total cost for the BRATS bus will be $120 ($6 each day for 20 days). Donations to neighborhood bridges will be used to make direct payment to BRATS. This will help this student earn more credits this summer and allow graduation to be that much closer. Thanks for helping our student!!
