I have a soft spot for kids, and that’s why I’m reaching out today about Ignite, a local non-profit organization that helps meet the needs of children facing housing insecurity with trauma-informed, evidence-based services. Your donation today not only will support the WBEZ news that keeps us all informed — it will also provide an Ignite student with a hot meal, transportation to and from school and a pair of socks to complete their school outfit.  DONATE TODAY TO SUPPORT STUDENTS Support two great organizations with one easy pledge of $8 a month. You will ensure WBEZ has the necessary funding to deliver fact-checked reporting while also providing a student in need with essential resources for a successful day of school.  Ignite is driven by its vision of a world where all young people have the support they need to be defined by their potential, not their circumstances. Your donation today will make an impact on a young person’s future with immediate services, and by bolstering WBEZ as a public service that is accessible to the entire community.  Thank you,  Hunter Clauss Digital Editor, The Rundown He, him, his  Matching Gifts Car Donation Gift of Securities Planned Giving ©Chicago Public Media Inc 848 East Grand Ave, Navy Pier Chicago, IL 60611 Please do not reply to this email.
