Holiday Movie Nights Strengthen Family Bonds in Cortez

Cortez
  • Local Champion: School Community Youth Collaborative
  • Date Funded: August 15, 2025
  • Grant Amount: $6,961

In today’s busy world, Cortez families have limited opportunities to spend quality time together. Hoping to address this problem, staff at the School Community Youth Collaborative decided to launch a series of holiday activities to strengthen family connections. LOR’s funding helped the group launch a series of holiday movie nights at the local Sunflower Theatre. In addition to enjoying movies and snacks together, families will receive books and themed take-home activities, creating memorable holiday traditions that support both family bonds and literacy.

This project is fiscally sponsored by Onward! A Legacy Foundation.
