Meet our team
Emmanuel is a thoughtful and compassionate 2nd grader at Caliber Beta Academy. Recently, he decided to launch a fundraising campaign to support communities in Mexico in the aftermath of the 7.1 magnitude earthquake that rocked the region. "I was watching the news and saw there had been an earthquake. I asked my mom how we could help because my cousins and grandparents live in Mexico. I wanted to help families like mine." Emmanuel brought a jar to each classroom to for donations. Thanks to Emmanuel, Caliber Beta Academy raised over $1,000!! In addition to philanthropy, Emmanuel loves to play basketball. He lives in Richmond with his mom, dad and sister.
Words about Emmanuel from his teachers "Emmanuel is a leader in our classroom! Students often notice how focused and hard-working he is and that makes him a great role model for his peers.
