SPARK Social Club:  Style/Grooming Workshop for Autistic Teens, April 7, 2019

Natalia Geldin created SPARK Social Club for her daughter and autistic teens like her in Los Angeles, ages 13-17.  “Teens on the spectrum are typically isolated from their communities and given few social opportunities.  SPARK supports their individuality and respects their individual differences.  SPARK Social Club is a workshop series that provides a platform for autistic teens to explore potential passions and new relationships on their own terms.  In this series the participants are learning the skills and confidence to organize and host their own community dance party.”  -Natalia Geldin.  The Style and Grooming Workshop portion of this series took place at Sunday Morning on April 7, 2019. 

RAFFLE AND FUNDRAISER FOR COYOTL + Macehualli, may 2021

Sunday Morning held a GoFundMe fundraiser on behalf of Coyotl + Macehualli. The fundraiser included a raffle for a free haircut with me for donations to this grassroots community-led and based nonprofit fighting to protect the hills, wildlife, native trees, and people of El Sereno from luxury development that threatens to displace and cause harm to all of these things. The funds raised went to support them in their efforts to lead this fight for our community, including covering the costs of lawyers, surveys, and other evidence they need, and which up till then had been completely out of pocket or donated.  Brenda and Micah are not only organizers, but friends, and support is ongoing.
