Usually I have people do random acts of kindness for my birthday month, but THIS year, I’m asking you all to do a specific act of kindness.

Through the Screen Actors Guild Foundation’s BookPALS program, I’ve had the privilege to meet Mr. Lee’s 2nd grade and Ms. Geierman’s 3rd grade students at Ramona Elementary School. This is an underserved school, so the teachers have been digging into their own pockets to help fill in the gaps, but their valiant efforts aren’t enough! We all need to pitch in!

For my birthday, I’m asking all of you to donate school supplies from the lists below. I’ve included the address to send it to (the teachers will share the supplies), so it goes right to them. If you can’t help monetarily, please share this event with the hashtag #Supplies4Sarah! Tweet it, Facebook it, instagram it, Pin it…you get the idea!

Send supplies to:

Ms. Geierman and Mr. Lee
c/o Ramona Elementary
1133 N. Mariposa Ave.
Los Angeles, CA 90029
