September means back to school. Assisting children with backpacks and school supplies is a priority. Working along side of Centre Clothes Corner which is run by The Volunteer League of The San Fernando Valley, we assist underprivileged children with getting new shoes, uniforms, underware, socks and new jacket. Taking some of the financial pressure off of families on a limited budget really helps and the children like getting the new clothes throughout the year!
Celebration time…graduations and birthdays all need to be celebrated to mark each child’s special occasion and create meaningful memories Special needs parents need to find easy ways to celebrate. Getting ready for our annual beach trip. Several children have never seen the Pacific Ocean. Keep an eye out for pics from that day!
Keeping kids busy during summer means happy children. Assisting parents with summer activities…signing kids up for camp, dance and art classes seems to be what is most popular. Transportation is an issue. Not driving means locating activities that are not too far from home so they can get there by bus. Thankfully volunteers make these activities a reality.
