Abakar Family Fund Update 🤍

We want to thank you all for your generosity and kindness. We are incredibly grateful to share that we’ve raised enough to truly wrap Bilal’s family in the love and support of our Hanawalt community.

We hope to present the donation to the family by tomorrow June 11 or Friday June 12. If you would still like to contribute, please do so by the end of the day today (Wednesday, June 10).

Thank you again for showing such compassion and support during this difficult time.

It is with profound sadness that our school community mourns the tragic loss of one of our students, Bilal Abakar.

Our hearts are with his family, friends, classmates, teachers, and all who knew and loved him. The Hanawalt Community PTA will be making a donation to the family, and we welcome anyone who would like to join us in providing additional support during this difficult time. Every contribution is deeply appreciated and will help ease some of the burdens the family is facing.
