What is Project Second Chance?
In Project Second Chance, students and their parents work together to design and decorate Manzanita trees in order to raise fund.  The fund raised from the 2010 project will be sent to Pakistan in efforts to help with aiding the flood victims. With these gorgeous trees, our organization plans to hold an exhibition at our Salvation Army Korean Corps. At the exhibition, there will be a silent auction.

This project is called second chance because we are designing the trees with broken or idle household items and giving them a second chance to be beautiful and useful again. Like these items, we provide an opportunity for the lifeless upper halves of Manzanita trees to present aesthetic values in homes and offices. By auctioning these plants, we are also granting a second life to those who dearly requires help in Pakistan.

What are Manzanita trees?
Manzanita trees are unique plants that shed its upper branches but don’t really die. They only grow in certain areas in California and Arizona. Come and see how our beautiful trees have been prepared to live its second life.
