| Million Father March - Seville Park, Fontana, CA |
Women Wonder Writers joined Fontana's Million Father March Saturday, September 7 at Seville Park, designing a large graduation cap, adorned with a hot pink tassel, made out of sticky notes. The design furthers WWW's Let's Stick Together™ campaign, which brings awareness to issues affecting our youth in the community through sticky note art.
"We wanted to create something in line with the day's theme and with the help of Street Positive, one of the event's organizers, the graduation cap seemed perfect," said WWW President Debra Postil.
The Million Father March encourages fathers to become involved in their child's K-12 education and graduation. The cap, along with 2014, was posted outside the stage area where Fontana Mayor Acquanetta welcomed the crowd and read the day's proclamation. Attendees helped post notes, writing how the day inspired them and how they would be their child's hero this school year. One note inspired us to continue Sticking Together stating, "it's inspiring to see a community really ban together and work toward a common goal."
Stay tuned for our next sticky note wall...
