My Project
Help me celebrate our 5th grade scholars at Lodestar elementary in Oakland, CA, with a promotional party they’ll never forget! These remarkable young minds have overcome systemic barriers, defied odds, as well as demonstrated exceptional growth both academically and personally. They are not just students; they’re trailblazers, future leaders, and agents of change within their communities.
In recognition of their hard work and accomplishments, we are determined to provide them with a graduation party that celebrates their achievements and affirms their worth.
However, I cannot do it alone. Your generous donations will enable us to create an unforgettable graduation celebration that honors the unique identities and experiences of our students. These contributions will help alleviate the financial burden on families of the students who struggle to afford these festivities. By coming together as a community, we can ensure that every scholar has the opportunity to participate in this milestone event without financial worry.
As a team, let us stand in solidarity with our black and brown students, affirming their worth, celebrating their achievements, and empowering them to continue striving for excellence. Be a part of sowing the seeds for a brighter and more equitable future for generations to come. Join us in creating a graduation party that transcends borders, celebrates diversity, and uplifts the voices of our black and brown scholars. Together, we can make their dreams a reality and send them off into the world with deserved love, support and affirmation.
