STAAR's Latest Events and Announcments!
A message from STAAR: ATTENTION, FALCONS! If you don’t know, the Fairfax-San Anselmo’s Children’s Center (FSACC) is a non-profit local organization that provides quality early childhood education and care to over 100 children from low/ moderate-income families, and has for over 50 years. They also provide support for parents and families by offering health screenings, meals and snacks, parent education, crisis counseling, family activities, a Get-Well-Room to care for mildly sick children of working parents, and a men’s program for fathers.
Now, it's time for you to step in. You want to help make our community more welcoming for all? You want to help make it more antiracist? WE NEED YOU! We are asking for your support in making sure they are here to stay by joining us at the next board meeting which will be Wednesday, Sept 21, at 7pm at Wade Thomas Elem (in the multipurpose room). We need to show the number of people who support the Center, and if you’re willing to speak for up to 3 minutes during the comment period of the board meeting, here are some talking points you can say: Thank you for working in collaboration with the Fairfax-San Anselmo’s Children’s Center to help it remain in the community. (most important thing that needs saying) The best thing for you to do is transfer the property to the FSACC at an affordable price. Make it available for public benefit. Make the transfer happen! This will help our working families who are the backbone of our community feel that their children are well cared for while they continue helping our community, which is their community, too. They are our social workers, house cleaners, construction workers, waiters, cashiers at Good Earth, landscapers, nannies, and so much more.
Here is also a link for the Center’s Gofundme to help them cover the costs to run the center. Please consider donating and/or sharing the link.
Come to room 106 during tutorial 2 on Wed, 9/21, to work with others on your speech (if you’re going to talk) or to make signs for the board meeting. More importantly, we hope to see you at the Ross Valley School District board meeting next week!
