Community Gathering to share the stories of the crisis in India
|
We know that many families may be struggling with the loss of loved ones due to COVID-19, especially families with ties to India. To support our community, members of our PTSA are scheduling an opportunity for families to connect virtually in an on-line support and sharing meeting on Friday May 7th at 7pm.

As families in our Cherry Crest Comm(Unity) may be seeking ways to support relief efforts in India, we are sharing links to number of organizations working for COVID relief in the region:
