Update and Photos!

The Learn2Live NOLA team is extremely proud of how their hard work paid off during the Learn2Live Back to School & Family Expo! Over 300 students received book bags with free school supplies, more than 100 haircuts and beauty vouchers were given to students, and 100+ therapeutic massages were enjoyed as live local music made the crowd composed of New Orleans community families sing and dance along. If you haven't already checked them out, the rest of the photos from the Expo can be seen on the Learn2Live Facebook Page.

Many thanks to the sponsors of the Learn2Live Back to School & Family Expo including The United Church of Christ Justice and Witness Ministries, Beecher Memorial, Brown's Dairy, The Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office, Cafe Reconcile, Aura Barber Shop, Blue Cliff Community College, darkplay graphics, BFAM Music Group, and The Ashe Cultural Arts Center.

The team is already in the planning stages of next year's Learn2Live Back to School & Family Expo as well as developing more community events and programs to service and engage New Orleans' families. We look forward to offering parenting seminars, parent-child bonding activities, mini art camps, and homework help in the upcoming months.
