| | | Hello from the Sylmar Neighborhood Partnership! |
| Sharing Our Good News: Youth Speak Collective Friendraiser Success On Monday, June 13th, Youth Speak! Collective held another successful friendraiser event. An organization named Philanthro Productions, selected YSC as an organization they would like to support in the Angel Shares program. As a result it allowed them to be part of Pourtal Wine Tasting Bar to give them 15% percent of the bar's proceeds during their happy hour. YSC Youth Program Coordinator, Mayra Esparza, would like to thank all of the young professionals who showed up and supported them because without them successful fundraising would not be possible. |
