Norwood ES Beautification Event with Breathe SoCal

3/21/2023

 
Breathe SoCal, an LAUSD greening partner, hosted a beautification event (BUL 5761) at Norwood Elementary School on Saturday, March 18th. Fifty(!) volunteers from the local school communities got together to pull weeds, plant 200 California native and drought tolerant plants, and paint twelve cement planters around the school.

Breathe Southern California has 
roots in Southern California since 1903 and has delivered outcome-driven programs supporting lung health and air quality improvement for underserved populations for 120 years. Breathe Southern California’s mission is to promote clean air and healthy lungs through research, education, advocacy, and technology. BlueSky LA is a partnership between Breathe Southern California and Climate Cents to improve air quality, mitigate heat, and reduce climate emissions of the greater Los Angeles by the 2028 Olympics and beyond through local community-based volunteer projects. The current sponsors of the program: South Coast Air Quality District and Tesla Motors.

Thank you to the Norwood Elementary School Community and Breathe SoCal for greening the school!
