On a beautifully clear Thursday morning we honored a special group of caring third graders from Park Day School in Oakland. We inviting them to a bird release to celebrate their fundraising prowess after they collected $603.30 for the Mystery Goo seabird response.

Thank you PDS kids and their teachers Renee Miller, Mona Halaby, and Jeanine Harmon!

  1. The world is a much better place thanks to organizations like yours. Our third grade teachers Renee Miller and Mona Halaby love teaching their students about birds every year. As the Director of Community Outreach and Service Learning, I help connect our students with projects, organizations and volunteer efforts in our community. We hope that other people will be inspired to both donate and volunteer at your organization. Thank you for creating a memorable experience for our students yesterday!
