Community Partnerships: Burlington Donates to Parkridge Elementary
Corona, CA - On Friday, May 16, Parkridge Elementary administrators and staff members stepped out of the classroom and into the spotlight as special guests at the grand opening of Burlington’s newest store location in Corona. With welcoming smiles, school spirit, and high energy, the Parkridge team joined Burlington employees in greeting customers and celebrating the occasion.
The event wasn’t just about cutting ribbons—it was about giving back. As part of its partnership with AdoptAClassroom.org, Burlington presented Parkridge Elementary with a $5,000 donation. This generous contribution supports the national initiative, Advancing Equity in Education—One Classroom at a Time, aimed at ensuring students and teachers have access to the tools they need to thrive.
The funds will directly benefit Parkridge classrooms, helping to purchase supplies, materials, and resources that enhance student learning and support teachers in delivering high-quality education.
Moments like these highlight the powerful connection between local businesses and schools. Parkridge Elementary is grateful to Burlington for its generosity and for recognizing the importance of equity in education. The support will make a real difference—and Parkridge was proud to be part of such a meaningful and joyful celebration.
