It takes the strength of a community to lift those children who need a helping hand.

Thank you, Rio Tinto, for your generous gift in helping to short-circuit the effects of poverty and removing barriers to learning. We were honored to have your consistent and unwavering support.

Thank you, ChamberWest for bringing businesses to tour our Donation Center and to volunteer their time on behalf of others. By assembling food kits, they will help ensure that hungry children will have the added nutritional support they need when school is not in session.
