Giving Tuesday 2020 Newsletter
Giving is Living
For some people, the winter months and the holiday season can be a mental and emotional challenge. Add to that a global pandemic and…it’s complicated. Did you know that studies show giving is actually good for your health? Look no further than our youngest children for the perfect example. They LOVE to give: pictures, time, presents (who else has way too much kid art stuffed into multiple boxes in the garage?) Some additional benefits of giving:
Lower blood pressure
Increased self-esteem
Less depression
Lower stress levels
Longer life
Greater happiness and satisfaction
This holiday season consider giving back to DragonSprouts, where your funds support your children’s Mandarin Immersion education. This Giving Tuesday season we are raising money for:
Better Chinese for all 1st graders
Classroom libraries for when the kids go back to school
Santa Monica Youth Orchestra Chinese Music Ensemble classes
UCLA Extension HSK course for high school kids (proficiency testing)
Additional Mandarin Immersion teacher for Mark Twain Middle School
