🌳Welcome back to school, Claremont Canopy kids! ✨🌳 We hope your first few days back have been fantastic since starting on Wednesday!

Huge thanks to the incredible Claremont Cross Country team for going the distance—literally! They laced up their shoes and ran for 24 hours—not just for the miles, but for our newly arrived neighbors. Through every mile, every handoff, every sleepless hour, they raised an amazing $2,780 for Claremont Canopy. This act of heart, grit, and solidarity means more than words can say. Thank you, CXCP, for showing us what it looks like to lead with compassion. ❀️🌍
On this Independence Day, we hold close the ideals of freedom and refuge—for everyone. At Claremont Canopy, we work toward a version of America that welcomes those seeking safety, dignity, and the chance to thrive. As fireworks light up the sky tonight, may we remember that liberty means little unless it belongs to all of us.
Eid Al-Adha Mubarak to those that celebrate! ✨ The Canopy team wishes you peace, love and justice! May your home and heart be filled with the joyful spirit of Eid. 😊
The entire Claremont Canopy community celebrates a momentous achievement, as our dear friend Samer has officially become a U.S. citizen! Samer’s journey began in 2012 when he left Syria in search of safety and new beginnings. Through years of dedication, persistence, and hard work, he has reached this significant milestone. His path from refugee to citizen over these thirteen years stands as a powerful testament to the human spirit. In these challenging times, Samer’s achievement brings much-needed light and hope to our community. His story reminds us all of the dreams that continue to flourish when supported by determination and community. At Claremont Canopy, we’ve had the privilege of witnessing Samer’s incredible journey, and we couldn’t be prouder to celebrate this achievement with him! Congratulations, Samer! This country is fortunate to officially welcome you as a citizen.
Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate! Wishing you health, peace, and love. May your heart and home be filled with the joy and blessings of Eid. ✨
Huge thanks to the Benton Museum of Art and the Claremont Muslim Student Association for helping make our annual Iftar in a Jar (or rather, box!) event so meaningful this year. Together, we assembled Ramadan care packages filled with goodies for our families to break their fast—each one including a handwritten note with warm Ramadan wishes. We’re so grateful to our partners for helping us continue this beautiful tradition of care and community.
Ramadan Begins Tonight! πŸŒ™βœ¨ As the sacred month of Ramadan starts this evening, we honor this special time when Muslims worldwide engage in fasting, prayer, and reflection. At Claremont Canopy, we stand with our Muslim friends as they embark on this spiritual journey. Wishing all those observing a peaceful and blessed Ramadan! πŸŒ™

Thank you to our partners!
