Several years ago, our beloved performing arts program — the <br />only elementary schoolprograi n of its kind in all of Ora nge County — was on the brink of <br />disappearing. Without immediate funding, it would have ceased to exist. <br />Thanks to the generous donation from the Segerstrom Family, the program not only survived but <br />flourished. Their support gave us the critical two years we needed to swore grants and additional <br />funding to keep it going. Today, my child and hundreds of others are learning confidence, teamwork, <br />and creativity through the arts because of their gift. <br />This is not just a program, it's a lifeline for students who might otherwise newer have this opportunity. <br />Please know the Segerstrom Family's contributions have had a profound and ]acting impact on our <br />school and conununity. <br />Sincerely, <br />Long Nguyen <br />Santiago Elementary School <br />City of Santa Ana <br />11 4-1 <br />August 2025 <br />42 <br />
