Dear Friend,

Join us in celebrating Eliza’s birthday today!

Eliza Hamilton founded one of America’s first charities for children, an orphanage that evolved over the centuries to become Graham.

To think that in 1806, Eliza started by helping six orphans and today, 214 years later, Graham helps over 4,000 kids – we think Eliza would be very proud!

Usually this time of year, we ask for your help filing backpacks with school supplies for students in need. With the pandemic still raging, our back to school drive needs more thank the usual notebooks and pens. We need to give our students supplies for remote learning.

Help us close the digital divide and provide laptops, Mi-Fi’s, headphones, and other tech devices so that all of our kids have equal access to their online learning.

Friends like you have helped us shape and carry Eliza’s vision for over 200 years. Don’t miss this opportunity to honor, celebrate and be part of our most famous founder’s legacy by helping us give kids their best shot at the school year ahead. Every child deserves that chance.

Donate


Thank you for helping us carry on Eliza’s legacy!

With gratitude,

Mayra Pacheco
Special Events & Volunteer Coordinator
 
PS: Share #ElizasStory and tell your friends about the important work Graham does to help kids and families thrive.
