Giving Thanks

One of my dreams was always to give back to deaf children.  I was allowed to visit a Pre-K classroom at the California School for the Deaf at Riverside.  When I had the opportunity to visit with the children, my heart instantly melted, seeing their beautiful faces as they expressed themselves in American Sign Language guided by their excellent Deaf classroom teachers.

As part of my initiative, I donated some classroom supplies to the school to support their learning journey so they will continue to explore and grow with new tools made possible. I visited the classroom a few weeks after the donation was made; I was greeted with such warmth from the children, more than I could ever imagine. They surprised me with a beautiful piece of artwork created by the class. It has all of their handprints on a framed picture in appreciation.  This brings me joy, and they are genuinely my sunshine! 

A little note from them: 

We want to thank Liz from the bottom of our hearts for bringing magic into our classrooms!
