The Back to School Peace Party was a huge success! ๐๐โ๐ฝ
Together with Alum Rock Union Elementary School District , we were able to support more than 1,200 students and families as they prepare for the new school year. We provided school supplies and uniforms to help students start the year with confidence, but this was about so much more than that.
This was a celebration of our community, filled with fun, hope, and positive vibes!
Families enjoyed:
๐น Free skateboard lessons
๐ Skateboard giveaways
๐ Free haircuts
๐จ Face painting
๐ So many Squishmallows and squishies!
๐ Giveaways, games, and so much more!
A heartfelt THANK YOU to all of our incredible donors, partners, volunteers, and community members who made this event possible.
