ARP Dollars In Action-Sarah A Reed Children's Center St. Ann's CampusGary L. Bukowski MA,CFRE VP for Advancement
An effort to start a Summer School in the Pulaski-Lighthouse District on Erie's East Side. This would establish a beachhead for Sarah Reed to begin working with children on Erie's East Side after being on Erie West Side for four years. The success of the ARP Summer Program helped to lay the groundwork toward putting back the "soul" into the former St Ann's School built in 1925.
To date over $500,000 of improvements have been made to the building under Phase#1 ,new heating and cooling, IT Infrastructure upgrades, classroom equipment, technology. Once two new roofs are completed. Phase #2 begins to address a plethora of needs internally. Sarah A Reed Children's Center 2023 Summer Reading& Math Program/STEAM Initia...

We have initiated a Phase #1 improvement Plan for our St Ann's Campus in the Pulaski-Lighthouse District in the City of Erie. After a very successful Summer 2022 Program on the campus. We made an analysis of the necessary improvements we need to make for the students we educate at our St Ann's Campus. One of the first efforts was to upgrade the aging classroom furniture in 10 of our classrooms. We developed this Case Study in collaboration with School Specialty. This was one component of our $500,000 Phase #1effort to bring back the soul of the building that has a true history of being the site where many children have received an education in this school on Erie's East Side. www.sarahreed.org

Celebrating 150 Years of Sarah A Reed
All of us here at Sarah A. Reed Children’s Center are thrilled to be featured in the April 2021 edition of Business Magazine alongside Gale Magyar and her team at Sarah Reed Senior Living! The article in this special “Women in Leadership” issue celebrates the rich 150-year history of our organization, which was started back in 1871 by Sarah Ann Reed and 30 local women who were committed to improving the lives of Erie County’s most vulnerable population of women, orphans, children and families. In 1986, two independent non-profits formed – Sarah A. Reed Children’s Center and Sarah Reed Senior Living – and they continue to shine brightly and provide the Erie community with compassionate, cutting-edge programs and services. We know Sarah is smiling down on us and would be proud of the great work being done by Adrienne Dixon, Ph.D., Gale Magyar, NHA, CASP, and all the staff members from both agencies, as we continue to carry on Sarah’s legacy of caring and positively impacting the lives of so many individuals and families in our community and the Commonwealth.
150th Anniversary Technological Initiative Update
Yesterday marked one year of the COVID-19 cloud that affected the world, our country, and Sarah A. Reed Children’s Center. It instantly impacted all of us in so many ways. In March 2020, after attending a plethora of Zoom meetings and hearing the technology needs that all five campuses were quickly experiencing, we immediately created the 150th Anniversary Technological Initiative. This critical effort incorporated the spirit of our rich history and the needs created by the pandemic, as we began to raise the philanthropic funds necessary to secure the technology we so desperately needed because of the uptick in remote learning and telehealth.
We set an initial $300,000 goal based on voiced needs and began the fundraising effort to secure the private funds necessary to address the immediate needs brought about by this pandemic.
I am happy to report that we have reached 70% of our goal and raised $208,000 thanks to you and our generous community of donors! But our work continues!
I wanted to share with you some of the progress we have made to date thanks to your support of us during this COVID-19 cloud. Our agency has always moved forward during challenging times, just like our foundress Sarah A. Reed did back in 1871 when she and her cadre of 30 women first began this organization.
Mark and Mallory, we will keep you posted as we continue to move forward, and if you have any friends who would like to join us in this historic effort please let me know.
Thank you for your commitment to this special place and the amazing work that is accomplished here every day for some of the most challenged children, adults and families in our region.
All of us here at Sarah Reed wish you and your family the very best as we move into the Spring 2021 season. “The sun will rise again.” www.sarahreed.org

Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
