In past years and under different circumstances, AGS Community Partners has provided an opportunity for individuals and local businesses to support the Academy for Global Studies (AGS) program by providing funds for travel scholarships for our curriculum-based learning expeditions. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the prospect of travel will be very limited this year for the students in the AGS program. However, AGS faculty are looking at creative alternatives to provide perspective-broadening opportunities for their students.
For this reason, we still need your help in supporting the students this year. Last year, with your incredible generosity, we were able to raise over $45,000 for scholarships to ensure that all AGS students could take part in the incredible AGS travel curriculum. We cannot thank you enough for your continued generosity. With overwhelming gratitude, this year AGS Community Partners seeks to raise $25,000 to support virtual programs in the Academy of Global Studies. The teachers are exploring creative ways to give the students curriculum-based experiences outside the classroom, either virtual or in person. Much like how AGS reaches beyond the Austin High community to spread global awareness, we are reaching out to individual and corporate sponsors like you to help us ensure equal opportunity for all of our students. Will you help us reach our goal by making your tax-deductible donation today? Read more about Community Partners and how you can support our program here. |
