—- Boone, 5th grade Oak Ambassador

Learning Among the Oaks is overjoyed to be the recipient of donations from the San Luis Obispo County Chapter of 100 Women Who Care. By pooling individual $100 donations, these women made an incredible impact supporting our youth outdoor environmental education and conservation leadership program which will serve over 1,500 SLO county public school students this year. Thank You 100 Women Who Care!
