GirlsBuild Fire Disaster Support has raised $27,155 out of their goal of $40,000
About the Campaign
The devastating fires across LA County have impacted so many, and our hearts go out if you or anyone in your circle who has been affected. We extend our deepest sympathies to the families, teachers, students, and community members who have experienced loss or displacement.
Through GirlsBuild, a LA Promise Fund program, we are coordinating relief efforts to support the communities most affected by these fires. Our goal is to collect and distribute essential supplies to the GirlsBuild teams and schools in the hardest-hit areas; La Cañada High School, Sylmar Biotech Health and Engineering Magnet, Sylmar Charter High School, Pasadena High School, & John Marshall Fundamental Secondary School.
We would greatly appreciate your support in this endeavor. We are seeking donations of clothing and essential hygiene products, which we will deliver directly to our GirlsBuild teams schools to share amongst their communities. Items such as:
Hygiene Products
Menstrual Products
Unopened Makeup
Hair Ties & Brushes
Gift Cards
