With hosting distance learning, their kids missed play time, peer learning, personal connections with their teachers, and so much more. Especially for our Kindergarten students who missed out on their first day of school instruction. Help Belvedere Elementary provide a toy for all their students during their Christmas drop-by home visits. They hope that with your donation, the holiday experience will be a little brighter for their kids this year. You can drop off any toy of your choosing.

If you can't drop them off, you can donate to their paypal account http://paypal.me/estephaniavazquez. If you have questions give Estephania Vazqueza a call at 213-949-5579.
