Hi friends!
Back in September, we asked our community to get involved with our 2nd annual fundraiser to benefit our neighbors across the street at MLK Jr. Elementary School. You can read more details here!
We are so pleased to report that, with your support, we managed to meet our fundraising goal of $6,400 for a back-to-school kit for every single one of the 640 students at MLK! Our community raised $3,680 through purchase of the $10 Back-to-School Kits on our online store, and we topped off the pot with $2,720 from our Rebelle piggy bank. We want to take care of our community as much as you’ve all taken care in supporting us. In austere times like these, being generous and sharing what we have pays outsized dividends!
What’s next: Sohini, our friend at the MLK PTO, sourced some dope abstract art from the children at MLK, which our friend & Rebelle resident artist Karli Hendrickson will turn into cool postcards. As promised, we’ll be mailing these out as a thank-you to everyone who participated in our fundraiser with a monetary or mask donation. Spread the good vibes, baby!
We are deeply grateful to everyone who gave us their attention, shared the campaign and made a contribution. Special thanks go out to the team at Kreatelier on Hope Street, who donated a big batch of child-sized masks for our drive. Thank you!
