🪵HAPPY NATIONAL HOBBIT DAY🏡

"What do hobbits teach us? To be kind to each other." - Dr. Lozada

Hobbits live with rudimentary tools and technology, but they teach us the beauty of happiness and kindness towards each other, they create a loving community through their enjoyment of the small things in life.

Our Executive Director, Sally Lozada, stopped by Gorsuch West to spread the joy that hobbits are known for and handed out special wooden pencils for the students to write with!
