Hi, my name is Paul Yates, and I need help raising funds to pay for the remainder of my children's school tuition. 5 of our 8 children are school-age, ranging from 2nd to 10th grade, and they are enjoying their learning experience in an excellent private school.

The children all qualified for scholarships this year, but because of increased scholarship applications, did not receive adequate funds to cover their full tuition. My income hasn't been sufficient to cover all our living expenses, bills, AND the remaining tuition, so we're at the point of having to decide if we will even be able to re-enroll them for next year.

We really love this school. The teachers are great, and care about their students. The children are getting a solid education, and building lasting friendships. They're learning how to succeed in life, and I don't want to see them lose that opportunity.

Would you be willing to help us? We'd be so grateful if you could.
