JOIN OUR EFFORT IN MAKING A CHANGE
Why Ranger Good Works chooses to work hard for its communities’ children
Getting an opportunity to know the children of Dillard elementary school immediately reveals how much there is to love about them and how much love and support they are truly in need of. Join our effort in making a change in their lives as many lack almost everything other kids enjoy, such as family and the necessities of life. These kids have unfortunately been thrust into circumstances beyond their control with over 80% hailing from single-parent families. Many of these children are raised by grandparents or great grandparents. There are approximately 100 families who are homeless and have children attending Dillard Elementary.

Dillard Elementary begins with 3-year-olds in a head start program and goes up to fifth grade. For the school year, 2016-2017 Principal Gretchen Atkins-Brown has accepted the role in leading the school and will work diligently to continue a culture of excellence at Dillard Elementary.
Mrs. Angela Brown was principal of Dillard for four years. Through her leadership and a combined community effort, she changed the schools ranking in a positive direction and continues to be a great leader and committed partner to Ranger Good Works. Angela Brown dedicates herself to the students of Broward County Public Schools and has taken on a new position of Director, Coaching and Development in the Office of Talent Development at Broward County Public Schools. Her position is to make an impact on over 50 schools in similar positions as Dillard.
Dillard Elementary flourished under her leadership and now continues under the direction of Mrs. Atkins Brown. Being a partner with a principal who wants to make a significant change from the inside out is our primary focus. Ranger Good Works will continue to invest in Dillard students, teachers, and Principal Atkins Brown.
Our funding sustains afterschool clubs and programs which engage 75% of the students at Dillard. As a result, reports from the Principal suggest the school rarely experiences incidents from children manifesting negative behavioral traits. Attendance for the students participating in afterschool clubs is almost 95%. Compared to the population that does not attend afterschool clubs the number is 50% absenteeism.
The administration, the faculty, and the students are determined to change the course of their destiny with hard work and determination. We encourage you to join Ranger Good Works as a volunteer, or fund one of our programs. With your help, we will make an impact on 1000 children.
