We want to share that one of our Zentai families has recently experienced a devastating house fire and, heartbreakingly, has lost everything. We are incredibly grateful that everyone is safe, and now, as a community, we are coming together to support them as they begin the difficult journey of rebuilding their lives.
Jamil and Jemal have been amazing students in our program. They consistently show up with dedication, kindness, and leadership. They also volunteer and actively participate in our Summer Camp Leadership Program, always setting a positive example for others.
A GoFundMe has been created to help cover both immediate and ongoing needs during this challenging time. Donations will help provide meals while the family is in temporary housing and give them the flexibility and dignity to replace essential personal items as they rebuild.
Every contribution—no matter the size—truly makes a difference. Thank you for being a community that leads with compassion, generosity, and heart. This is what it means to be part of the Zentai family.
With gratitude,
Master Allen & Naomy De Peña
