Help us reach that goal by donating during Long Beach Gives early giving period.
| Dear Friend of Los Cerritos Wetlands, I am happy to report to you that we have wrapped up a summer of fun and educational field trips (in partnership with Long Beach Parks and Recreation and Marine), where we hosted kids from 13 urban parks who participate in Long Beach’s Be S.A.F.E. (Summer Activities in a Friendly Environment) program. Local neighborhoods are supported by extended evening hours of free supervision at designated parks by employing neighborhood youth. Some of the enriching activities offered through Be S.A.F.E. include arts and crafts, outdoor games, sports, science activities, computer labs, and fun field trips to places like the Los Cerritos Wetlands. In addition to hosting fun field trips, our work defending undeveloped, and therefore rare, coastal open space requires community support, and we are so appreciative of all of those who have joined our fight to protect Los Cerritos Wetlands. Supporting the Los Cerritos Wetlands Land Trust helps to ensure the protection, preservation, and restoration of our unique and vital local wetlands habitat. Additionally, with help from supporters such as you, we will continue to educate students in Long Beach and Orange County public schools about wetlands. Providing them with tours and lessons to foster a connection to nature and each other, helps bring classroom concepts to life. Your donation, large or small, will make a difference and help move the Los Cerritos Wetlands Land Trust closer to our fundraising goal. Please don’t wait. Donate now. Please follow the Los Cerritos Wetlands Land Trust on Facebook and Instagram, visit our website, and forward this email to your friends and family to get the word out. We appreciate your support! Sincerely, Elizabeth Lambe Executive Director Los Cerritos Wetlands Land Trust P.S. Check out this charming thank-you note from one of our young field trip participants. |
