    The holiday room has been festively decorated. 


    A generous 4-year stipend scholarship was donated by Dr. William H. E. Romero, allowing us to open a second holiday room, complete with a beautifully decorated Christmas tree. Thanks to your incredible generosity, the thermometer tracking our fundraising goal soared past our initial target of $10,000, and continues to climb!




    Week 4, December 3 to 10, 2024

    Week 4 of Giving Tuesdays is here! The first holiday room is beautifully decorated for the season, and the second room now features a second fully decorated Christmas tree, made possible by a generous 4-year stipend scholarship donated by Perla Razon-Pine.

      

    We’ve not only reached our goal, but exceeded it! Our initial target of $10,000 was met by the 3rd Tuesday, and while we’re just about $2,000 shy of our stretched goal of $20,000, we’ve raised far more than we ever anticipated. Thank you for your incredible support!
