End of Year Shopping
Summer shopping was a success for the students at Mariano Lake! ☀️🛒 Before heading into summer break, our coordinator took students on a special shopping trip to make sure they had everything they needed for the months ahead. From essential items to a few fun treats, these students were able to choose things that will help them feel prepared, confident, and excited for summer.
Unsponsored Child Highlight
Caleb* is a sixth-grade student who enjoys exploring technology and is especially talented at editing videos. He loves math, enjoys playing basketball, and dreams of one day becoming an engineer.
His teacher describes him as outgoing, and he enjoys spending time with his family, including his younger sister, Octavia. Whether he’s working on a creative project, cheering on his school’s basketball team, or learning something new, Caleb approaches life with enthusiasm and curiosity.
Caleb is currently waiting for a sponsor. Through sponsorship, children like Caleb receive support for essentials such as clothing, school supplies, and other needs that help them stay focused on learning and reaching their goals.
By becoming Caleb’s sponsor, you can help encourage his education, nurture his interests, and remind him that someone believes in his future.
