"In the face of a growing crisis, we must act now to ensure that every child at Wiley Elementary School has a chance to learn and thrive. With rising poverty rates, discontinued safety net programs, and the increasing cost of living, our mission to provide food, housing, and essentials has never been more critical." - The Cecilia Rawlins Fund Board of Directors
