Each evening, participants trickle in to play games, work on homework, color, and have a snack before the class begins an organized craft together. As youth develop their creative abilities, they are also acquiring life skills by discovering means of positive self-expression and cooperation with peers.
Our foster program is a great way to help animals in need. By providing an animal a temporary home, the foster parent has given that animal another chance at life that he/she otherwise would not have had. We are always looking for more foster families! Increasing the number of fosters allows us to save more…
