More than 25 students and community members put chalk to sidewalk during El Monte City School District’s Census 2020 Chalkathon on Sept. 26, helping to raise awareness about the importance of the once-a-decade count.
The Census count – for which only days remain – helps to determine funding for community services such as schools and hospitals.
For 230 years, America has used the Census to help determine how to funnel resources into our communities. We all need to take part to ensure our community receives its fair share.
