School Supplies Drive:
The International Institute of Los Angeles (IILA) is a nonprofit that empowers refugees, immigrants, and working families in our city by providing legal help, child care, and nutrition support. (IILA+1) We are organizing a fundraiser to help IILA continue and expand these crucial services, and we’d greatly appreciate any contribution or participation in our drive to support their work. See the flyer for their specific needs as well as a link to their Amazon wish list. If you bring items to school, they will be counted for a homeroom competition. The winner gets a cookie and hot cocoa party.
