On behalf of the Peninsula Business Chinese Association, I’m reaching out to invite you to join us in making a meaningful difference for the students of Lomita Park Elementary, the only Title I school in Millbrae.

In California, a Title I school receives federal funding because it serves a high percentage of students from low-income families. The goal of Title I is to ensure that all children regardless of socioeconomic status, have a fair, equal, and significant opportunity to obtain a high-quality education and reach academic proficiency.

We’re launching a donation drive to help equip all 12 classrooms at Lomita Park with interactive smartboards which will be a powerful tool that will transform the way students learn. These boards bring lessons to life with videos, simulations, and hands-on learning that will keep students more engage and help them achieve deeper understanding.

Share our donation drive with your friends/families and network
