Annual Toy Drive!
Muchisimas Gracias
With so many generous Toy Drive donations, we were able to deliver hundreds of gifts over several days!

Each year, we host a Toy Drive and Community Holiday Celebration featuring student performances and Holiday festivities. Due to the pandemic and for the safety of our community, we held Safe Socially Distant Toy Giveaway and delivered gifts to our young students. The families in our community have been impacted greatly by Covid-19, some lost their jobs, there is lack of childcare, financial hardships and with the support of so many Toy Drive donors, we were able to bring some Holiday joy for our little ones.

With a significant portion of our student base in financial need,
we ask for your continued support to provide FREE Online programing in 2021
while our center and school remain closed due to the pandemic.
