A New Years message from Lynda

This Christmas, with your support, we were able to reach 496 families with food, a laundry basket filled with towels, blankets, household items and toiletries, a choice of pots & pans/ blender/toaster oven/crock pot or heater and a generous $50 gift card to Wal-Mart or Target. There were tears, smiles and heartfelt thank you’s of appreciation and awe. We were lucky to have a truck donated by real estate agent Terry Moeller and for 10 days we loaded up the truck with all the goodies and met the families at 17 different Family Resource Centers in Oxnard, Ventura, Fillmore, Santa Paula and Piru. It truly was an amazing experience and incredibly gratifying for everyone.

In addition to all the 496 families we helped with your generous donations, we also had 75 local Girl Scout troops that each “adopted” a needy family. Our grand total of families reached was 571.

We received thousands of toys and were able to hand those out directly to 1,181 kids. We have hundreds of toys remaining that will be handed out in the next two weeks to kids who did not receive anything for Christmas.

Thank you for your continued generosity and support to help us help the kids and their families. We hope 2010 will be a prosperous and successful new year for you and your family.

BOOK DONATION GOES TO SUPPORT FOR THE KIDS

The month of December, 2009 found local Verizon employees collecting new and slightly used books for the foster and underprivileged kids we serve. The books were picked up at the Newbury Park Verizon offices on Tuesday, January 5th 2010 and will be distributed in the coming weeks.

When Lynda Miller was asked by Angela Mitchell if she could use the books, Lynda’s reply was “it’s the best gift we can give these kids, because it keeps on giving and giving”.

THANK YOU Verizon for your ongoing support and generosity.
