Advocacy

Giving Tuesday Donations

For Giving Tuesday, Little Known Help Zone conducted some civic engagement and gave to a variety of causes near and dear to our mission. These ranged from community to globally, and a diverse number of causes received support.

Jaguar Rescue Center- Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica

This is a cause we have worked with extensively in the past (read our posts) and wanted to send a bit more love down there. This organization is doing incredible work with jungle animals in Costa Rica, and we’ve seen first hand how meaningful their work is.

Voices for Biodiversity

This is an anthropological organization that supports biodiversity and cultural diversity through global endeavors, preserving the vital ecology of our earth.

TechGirlz

This great group teaches tech and STEM skills to young girls from underprivileged communities, inspiring passion and helping enrich and mentor young women that may not have the resources.

Allentown Food Bank

This local organization feeds Allentown’s hungry, what more can we say than we want to give back to the community that has made this organization a reality.

Look Good Feel Better

This organization gives women undergoing chemo makeup and classes so that while they are working on getting better, they can feel beautiful.

Color Creates a Brighter Futre

Bucks County Author Fair

Last week, we were lucky enough to attend the Bucks County Local Author Fair at the Quakertown Library in PA. This was such a fun event, and we was able to meet so many local kids, other authors, and share and sell the books to raise money for LKHZ’s causes.

The kids were super excited by the books, crayons, and bookmarks, and we was also able to teach them the importance of giving back to others in your community. These books made great holiday gifts, and all of the copies will be going to great homes

It was so wonderful to be involved in such a great community event. Thank you Bucks County Libraries for having us and putting on this great time!IMG_2495 2.jpg

Fundraising

Soap Fundraiser with Oshunola Organics

Want to support LKHZ? We have an awesome new partnership with Oshunola Organics! For the next month, if you purchase this soap, $1.50 will be donated to our organization!

The soap smells like jasmine and gardenia and is fun, reminiscing our crayon box theme!

Let us know if you’ve purchased it to support a good cause!

Monthly Classroom Project

Pencil Donation from Created Kind Shop

Little Known Help Zone received the most exciting donation from Created Kind Shop, hundred of gorgeous pencils!

These pencils said “I Am Strong,” which is such a kind message to give to students. We were graciously donated 35 5 packs of these pencils, and the packs are perfect to donate during our monthly classroom project.

This was such an exciting contribution to our project, and we’re so excited to share the kiddos with their pencils.
