[GSAUCR] Project Christmas

[Evita Limon]

GSA Community,

I would like to remind you about Project Christmas and the toy drive to share some Christmas cheer.The Renacimiento Community Center is located in Pomona CA, an area of chronic gang and drug activity. In this underserved an socioeconomically challenged community, there are many at-risk youth who lack numerous resources and opportunities. Many of the children have broken homes with many members of their family in prison. The donations made will make a huge difference to these children that most likely won't be receiving anything for Christmas. On the day of the event Dec 18th, we are planning a fun afternoon including arts and crafts, reading with the children, and a turkey dinner for the families. We would like the GSA community to take part in either part of the event. Last year GSA donated a large portion of the toys we collected and truly made a significant difference.  If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact me. A box is in GSA right in front of the reception desk. Thank you very much. 

Sincerely,

Evita Limon
