Picaditas at Twilight
A special fundraiser to support SAY San Diego’s new program – Project LIVE – was held on April 28.
Project LIVE helps children at O'Farrell Community School who have an incarcerated parent (or a parent who has been recently incarcerated). Students in this difficult situation often exhibit behavior problems and depression and struggle in school. Project LIVE gives these children support and individual counseling to become healthier emotionally, socially, and academically. The ultimate goal is to break the cycle of incarceration.
Picaditas at Twilight featured delicious Argentine hors ‘doeuvres and a tango presentation, as well as presentations from students involved in Project LIVE.
Project LIVE student representatives Chanel, Marlon, Amesha, and Hector are joined by Michael Carr, SAY Executive Director (center), and Don Curristan, President, SAY Board of Directors (at right), to celebrate the success of the Picaditas event.
