Have you heard about the Backpacks Full of Hope service learning trip to Puerto Rico? Last spring, a group of learners from iLEAD Pacoima and SCVi traveled to Puerto Rico to help with hurricane recovery efforts in the U.S. island territory. They were so moved by what they learned and the amount of help they were able to provide that Cultural Bridges (iLEAD Schools’ international learning arm) is organizing another, larger-impact trip this year.
To kick off the excitement of planning for the year, please join us for a Puerto Rico Cultural Night at the Cafe at SCVi, Friday, September 7, from 5:30-9 p.m.
This fun evening of food, entertainment, and sharing is also a great way for our families to get together casually and get to know each other as our schools merge.
Tickets for the evening are $30 per adult and $12 per student, with proceeds going toward the trip.
