Painting and Picnic Recap

The past four months have been a very special journey for the three of our co-founders. Through much worry and excitement, Lauren, Nhi, and Yuling officially launched Glass Slipper Initiative! With over 50+ families signed up in the span of two weeks since our launch, today we held our first event – painting and picnic for disabled children in the bay area. The smiles on the children’s faces and the laughter that the families share mean a lot to us and motivate us to continue what we do. A big thank you to everyone who came out to volunteer – you helped make the event possible and better! We look forward to meeting with you all again very soon!
