2022 Back-To-School Drive

As big office supply stores begin throwing up the Back-To-School deals, the Almond Blossom is getting ready to kick off our second annual Back-To-School Drive. After relentlessly working through the summer months in preparation for August to roll around, just like the year before, the 2022 Back-To-School Drive went amazing!

There was an increase in donations to the year prior and we were able to provide over 300 items to Phillis Wheatly Elementary, 

Board leaders (above, left to right) Emily Meffe, Frances Yong, Philip Yong, and Whitney Choung, personally donated the school supplies to the school leadership along with their liaison (on the far left) Vince Grey.  An entirely new set of students have received these lovely community donations; they are more ready than ever to rock the new school year

As we continue to forge deeper connections within the community, we look forward to bigger projects in the future to further break down the educational barriers in intergenerational poverty.
