Pearl is my daughter, and she’s been through a lot over the past couple of years. As her mom, I want nothing more than to see her thrive and make big waves as she heads into high school. This year, Pearl has the chance to join her classmates on several important eighth grade trips—including Washington DC, New York City, Catalina Island, and a graduation trip to Disneyland. These experiences are more than just fun; they’re a chance for her to see the world, grow as a young lady, and build memories that will last a lifetime.

Pearl is set to start the biomed pathway program at El Segundo High School, and I want to give her the best possible start. She’s already shown incredible determination by raising some money herself through her lemonade stand and small business, but she’s still behind on what’s needed. With the trip dates coming up soon, I don’t want her to miss out on these opportunities that mean so much for her growth and confidence.

The funds raised will go directly toward Pearl’s travel expenses, program fees, and any other costs related to her eighth grade trips. This isn’t for spending money—it’s to make sure she can participate fully and enjoy these special moments with her friends. Any support you can give will help Pearl make lasting memories and start high school with confidence. Thank you for helping her reach her dreams!
