2019 SUMMER FUN-Raisers

The year isn't over but we had some phenomenal fundraisers that help us raise monies for our organization over the summer.  Please check out our photo albums on FaceBook.  Here are a few of them:

On June 8, 2019, we head out to Atlantic City's Bally and board walk in New Jersey, and raised $965 in donations.

On August 10, 2019, we organized a second bus trip but this time to Dorney amusement park in Pennsylvania.   We proudly raised $616 and gained exposure.

Other activities such as Facebook's Network for Good, helped raise an additional $95 for this year to date.  Keep sharing us via this social media.  Soon you will also see us on Instagram so please follow us if you haven't yet.

Thank you to everyone who continues to believe in our work, supports our wonderful kids and generously give of their time and money to our cause.

Unfortunately, we were unable to host a Knockerball event this year but keep an eye out, perhaps we will in the future. 

Have a wonderful end of the summer everyone!

If you were unable to attend any of the above events, you can make direct donations to:

2019 Scholar Announcement

On the  evening of  Friday, August 2, we  welcomed our 12th scholar to the S.M.B.S. family at Carmine's Restaurant in the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn, New York.   Board members, Diana Diaz Torres (Executive Director) and Alexandria Agrinsoni, who also led the application review team, presented recent Art and Design High School graduate, Darcelis Gutierrez, with her honorary certificate inducting her into our scholars group.

Darcelis accompanied by her mother proudly and gratefully reported how the scholarship will help with some of her school expenses.   Darcelis is currently working over the summer in a field she plans to enter professionally.  This fall 2019, Darcelis will enrolled full time at New York University's Tisch School to study her dream job in game design. 

Thank you Darcelis for being a courageous young lady and stellar student, who is truly dreaming high and is making your dreams come true.  You are one amazing addition to our strong group of leaders. Welcome to the family!
