The School Police Department started a program 5 years ago having to do with donations to children who are in need in Estrellitas House. These kids have passed through a lot of struggles and are know in rehabilitation. Estrellitas house teaches them that life isn’t only about suffering. Every year, on  December 21, the department starts giving out donations they have gathered from the schools such as toys, accessories, or other objects that spark their interest, so it can be a help to rise the children’s happiness.  

“Kids are being abused, tortured, and more, but what we try to do is provide them with accessories and objects from donations to make them feel more comfortable, we usually do it during holidays to make them feel as if they’re home,” school police officer, Noe Diaz, said.

Not only are they helping them physically but also try to get them through their emotions by making them feel special and show them that they’re not alone in this world.

“It’s a good feeling seeing them get motivated and bringing out a great smile from a kid that has been in a bad experience through life”, school police officer, Ayzha Little, said.

People who participate by donating are often overwhelmed by the joy of knowing they have impacted the lives of kids who have struggled through such difficult situations.
