A Note From the couple
Aubrie Bassett & Toni Brew Just Married!
Donor’s Choose – Something that I think we can all agree on is that public schools are underfunded. The Department of Education recently released a survey finding that 94% of teachers spend money on their classrooms without reimbursement, averaging $479 per teacher per year. Donor’s Choose helps to bridge that gap between state funding and necessities for their classroom. Teachers can create fundraising goals, outlining what they will buy for their students and why it’s important. Toni has been lucky enough to have multiple campaigns fully funded through the generosity of strangers on Donor’s Choose, and would love to help other teachers as well.
AFSP – Aubrie’s best friend from high school, Aaron Kahila, committed suicide on October 27th, 2010. This terrible event opened both Aubrie and Toni’s eyes to this very real, yet rarely talked about, tragedy. The 10th leading cause of death in the United States is due to suicide, and The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is leading the way to better research, education, and campaigns to help save lives and help those affected.
