Non-Profit Fundraisers
Suds for Literacy: Car Wash
October 26th as part of Make a Difference Day
Pacific St. between Hoyt and Smith, 10 AM - 2PM
Suggested donation: $5
The Children (past and present) of The Sterling School
and the Clients of Lady LIberty Educational Alliance give back to their
community. Since these children are Dyslexic they wanted their community
service project to help other children who need help to read and write,
hence the profits from the car wash will go to 1) expand the services of
Lady Liberty which provides free Orton-Gillingham based remediation and 2)
a local neighborhood tutorial program.
