Eat at Burien Panda Express for a Good Cause

A message from Gaby, one of the many students doing great work in their communities. Please find time to support Latin@s Stand Up, an excellent high school club who work to improve the Latino dropout rates at Global Connections High School (in Sea Tac) by educating Latino parents in their language on important educational issues affecting their student in an un-intimidating location and encouraging parents to partner with the school. Some past LSU events include an annual BBQ for Latino parents, visiting a college classroom, and attending educational conferences.
