LinkEducation and Rediscover Your Heart
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Last spring I received an award from Rediscover your Heart. I was so happy that I would be able to further my work with LinkEducation (my organization that helps parents and teachers in New York City to find education programs for their students).

Thanks to the Rediscover your Heart award we were able to hold our first Education Expo. It was an event that brought education programs (like art classes, yoga, after school programs, and tutoring) into one room so that parents could find programs for their kids, and so teachers and principals could find low cost or free programs to improve their school.

This first expo turned out to be a huge success! We co-hosted it with the New York City Department of Education, 300 parents and teachers attended, and had so many organizations who wanted to present that we ran out of room!

It was such a success that we are now going to do it twice a year! We have our next expo coming up this April 25th. We have a bigger space so we can now fit 100 booths, and we hope that even more parents and teachers will come this year.
