URGENT CALL to ACTION from The Henry Viscardi School

4201 SCHOOLS FACE BUDGET CRISIS!

Dear Staff, Parents, Families, Friends, Community Members and Supporters:

Please Help The Henry Viscardi School!

NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo has proposed a drastic change in how 4201 Schools (for children who are Deaf, blind and physically challenged) are funded. The proposal would eliminate direct state funding for these eleven schools – one of which is the Henry Viscardi School.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

Personal letters are best, but sample letters are also effective! Please write, email or fax personal letters to:

The Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo
Governor of New York State
NYS State Capitol Building
Albany, NY 12224
