We are a local youth collective that are fundraising for a School Supply Drive open to all K-12 local youth that will take place on August 12, 2024 at Ortega Park from 11-3pm/ while supplies last. For our fourth annual year, our goal is to raise $5,000 for school supplies to give back to the youth. Your contribution will go towards an abundance of school supplies such as: backpacks, notebooks, binders, planners, pencils, pens, highlighters, folders, sticky notes, crayons, colored pencils, etc. Materials will be distributed to youth and their families on Saturday August 12th, at Ortega Park from 11-3pm/ until supplies last. We plan to create an empowering space that day that will encourage youth through art workshops, youth activities, entertainment, and more! In addition, we will be hosting the Turning Wheel Project Bus (AKA the "Barrio Bus") visiting from Ortega Park's sister territory, Chicano Park, located in San Diego, Califas. Back in 2024 during the midst of the pandemic, we were able to raise a total of $1,900 and give school supply kits to over 150 students. The second year, 2024, we raised a total of $3,628 and distributed about 330 backpacks with school supply kits. In 2024 we fundraised $4,368.73 and distributed 320 backpacks with school supply kits. We will be as transparent as possible and post updates on this LFEBridge page throughout the organizing process. Every contribution counts and is deeply appreciated. Let’s support our Santa Barbara youth!
