通過捐贈來幫助推動Erie高中的社區學校模式，並解決生活在貧困中的學生和家庭面臨的障礙。
ERIE, Pa., June 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Erie Insurance (ERIE) today announced a $1 million donation to United Way of Erie County, a social impact organization focused on breaking the cycle of generational poverty through education in Erie, Pa. ERIE's donation will help launch the Community Schools Model at Erie High School, a proven strategy for improving academic growth, addressing students' and families' basic needs, increasing engagement, boosting attendance and enhancing school culture.
2024年6月7日，賓夕法尼亞州伊利市/PRNewswire——今日，伊瑞保險（ERIE）宣佈向賓夕法尼亞州專注於通過教育打破代際貧困循環的社會影響組織伊利縣聯合公益總會捐贈100萬美元。ERIE的捐贈將幫助在Erie高中推廣社區學校模式，這是一個提高學術成長、解決學生和家庭基本需求、增加參與度、提高出勤率和增強學校文化的成熟策略。
In announcing ERIE's donation, President and CEO Tim NeCastro emphasized that United Way's Community Schools Model helps advance student success by meeting students' and families' basic needs and building trusted relationships.
在宣佈ERIE捐贈的時候，總裁兼首席執行官Tim NeCastro強調，聯合公益總會的社區學校模式通過滿足學生和家庭的基本需求，建立可信賴關係，從而有助於提高學生的成功率。
"What I've learned working closely with United Way and our local school leaders is that nonacademic barriers are holding students back. These barriers are a lack of basic needs that we take for granted: food, clothing, personal hygiene and safety," said NeCastro. "These are challenges children in our community face every day, and these are the challenges the Community Schools Model is helping to address."
“通過與聯合公益總會和本地學校領導密切合作，我學到的是非學術障礙正在阻礙學生的發展。這些障礙是我們認爲理所當然的基本需求缺乏：食物、衣服、個人衛生和安全，“NeCastro說。“這些是我們社區的孩子們每天面對的挑戰，這也是社區學校模式幫助解決這些挑戰的途徑。”
With funding from Erie Insurance and other community partners, United Way will hire community school directors for Erie High School and provide inside-the-school support that includes health, vision and dental care, clothing and personal hygiene items, family engagement opportunities and expanded learning time and enrichment programs.
在得到伊瑞保險和其他社區夥伴的資助之後，聯合公益總會將爲Erie高中聘請社區學校主任，並提供學校內部支持，包括健康、視力和口腔保健、服裝和個人衛生用品、家庭參與機會以及擴大學習時間和豐富多彩的教育方案。
"Erie Insurance has long supported education in our region and the work of United Way," said Laurie Root, president of United Way of Erie County. "We are very grateful for Erie Insurance's support of the Community Schools Model, removing barriers for children and families in our community and helping us build a brighter future for students today and for generations to come."
“伊瑞保險一直支持我們地區的教育事業和聯合公益總會的工作，”伊利縣聯合公益總會主席Laurie Root表示。“我們非常感激伊瑞保險對社區學校模式的支持，這有助於消除我們社區兒童和家庭面臨的障礙，幫助我們爲當今和未來的學生建立更加美好的未來。”
Launched in 2016, the United Way Community Schools Model today serves nearly 10,000 students and their families in 16 schools in northwest Pennsylvania. The expansion of Community Schools to Erie High School will also bring continuity to the Community Schools support students and families have already had in the city's elementary and middle schools.
One of those schools is Pfeiffer-Burleigh Elementary School, a public school located in one the city's poorest zip codes and blocks from Erie Insurance's home office campus in downtown Erie. Erie Insurance has been the Pfeiffer-Burleigh 'Adopt-a-School' partner for more than 30 years. In 2016, Erie Insurance officially became the corporate partner for the school through United Way's Community Schools initiative.
聯合公益總會的社區學校模式於2016年推出，如今已在賓夕法尼亞州西北部的16所學校服務了近1萬名學生和他們的家人。將社區學校擴展到Erie高中還將爲城市的小學和中學已經接受到的社區學校的支持帶來連續性。
這所學校之一是Pfeiffer-Burleigh小學，這是一所位於城市最貧困郵政編碼區之一、距離伊利保險公司位於伊利市市中心的總部園區僅幾個街區的公立學校。伊瑞保險公司已經30多年來一直是Pfeiffer-Burleigh的“收養學校”夥伴。2016年，伊瑞保險正式成爲該學校的企業夥伴，通過聯合公益總會的社區學校計劃提供支持。
Erie Insurance is United Way of Erie County's largest workplace giving partner. Last year, Erie Insurance employee contributions and the company's matching gifts program totaled nearly $700,000 in support of United Way of Erie County and United Way organizations throughout the company's footprint.
Beyond support for Community Schools, Erie Insurance gives annually to various education nonprofits to support learning and expand education programs in Northwest Pennsylvania and across the communities it serves.
伊瑞保險是伊利縣聯合公益總會最大的工作場所捐贈合作伙伴。去年，伊瑞保險公司員工的捐款和公司的配對捐贈計劃總計捐贈近70萬美元，支持伊利縣聯合公益總會及其服務地區內的聯合公益總會組織。
除了對社區學校的支持，伊瑞保險每年還向各種教育非營利機構捐款，以支持西北賓夕法尼亞州的學習和擴大教育項目。
