PEERS GIVING 2018

by San Francisco Peer Resources

Adee Horn

For over 21 years, I've been able to 'work my passion' as a teacher within San Francisco Peer Resources. I believe in Peers with my whole being. Across SFUSD, we create classrooms where students can be themselves & support each other. They bravely make mistakes & learn from them. They think, speak, learn, laugh, cry, heal. From this foundation, Peers students make transformative changes within their schools & within their lives.

Here's where you can come in! Believe in the power of youth to lead us towards a more just world? Need an antidote for despair? Want to channel any anger?

I've pledged to raise $500 for Peer Resources to sustain our powerful programs, raising youth as leaders right now, and growing educator leaders for our community. We need Peers to train youth as conflict mediators/so that youth are each other's champions/to fight oppression daily by giving voice to the youth who are most pushed down/to connect youth with role-models in other youth/to support teenagers' social-emotional development/make spaces of connection in schools/to connect youth with future careers in community and education leadership.

Join me in supporting Peer Resources for our community--and really for our world.

Peer Resources changes lives. I witness this every day.

Empower San Francisco youth as agents of change! Help Peer Resources sustain radical programs to raise youth leaders who transform people and the system with your support this giving season.

Peer Resources is a community that unites to do big things together. This Peers Giving season, come together with us to raise funds that are crucial to ongoing services to engage, train, and support low-income youth of color with real and inspiring opportunities for their transformative leadership.

Every dollar helps, and anything you can give means another ally standing with youth who are fighting transphobia, resisting institutional racism, and making daily change towards a better world that we all need, adults and youth alike.

Your gift will support city-wide conferences for youth to see that they are not doing this hard work alone, that they are activated alongside hundreds of youth who are collectively pushing for change. Transformative Change Day, Youth Are Resources Conference, and Future Educators Conference bring together over 300 youth annually to build skills and community. Help us provide these platforms for youth voice by giving today!
