The season of gratitude, family and tradition is almost upon us. Here at PUENTE
Learning Center we have some traditions of our own, one of which is the annual
Holiday Under the Stars.
This special night is dedicated to celebrating our adult students and their
families from the Boyle Heights & East Los Angeles communities who make our
work so rewarding every day. We set aside this evening to provide a nice dinner,
fun holiday activities like decorating cookies and making ornaments, entertainment
and even a special visit from Santa with gifts for the children.
#GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and their world. GivingTuesday will kick off the generosity season this year by inspiring people to give back on December 3rd, and throughout the year.
Giving is not just about making a donation. It is about making a difference. Partner with PUENTE as we continue to build bridges and empower communities through access to education.
