This year, the Pasadena Rosebud Academy is hosting it’s Summer Fundraiser post - Eaton Fire —setting themselves up for future success!
This cause is so near and dear to my heart for so many reasons! Here’s my laundry list:
My youngest son was a former student. We lived around the corner from the school before the Eaton Fire destroyed the campus and displaced over 175 students. The school is that low key connector and a perfect place to sync with a mixture of students from all over the city with a common goal of enhancing their educational goals through challenging curriculum.
The Executive Director and Founder is a G.O.A.T. (Yes, I used the term G.O.A.T.). She started the school on a mission to connect Black and Brown students in the community to opportunity. Twenty years later (!!!) Rosebud Academy is still thriving!
The school is a pillar in the Altadena community. If you’ve toured schools, you knew about Rosebud. Formerly a hidden gem acknowleged by only those in the know, it quickly became just a flat out gem.
This is my 2nd year helping the team create a successful event that raises money for their rebuild. I love the energy of the group—all with hearts of goal and a common mission.
Every laugh on July 12th will help rebuild Pasadena Rosebud Academy. If you are local to LA, we hope you can join us.
Goal: $500,000 for a new permanent facility.
