What a wonderful Summer Children’s Event (one of our favorite things we do!). Children from disadvantaged families were our guests at Nottingham Ballroom for a day of fun and went home with a backpack full of school supplies, sneakers, clothing, pajamas and a blanket to start the school year off right. Each family received a backpack full of hygiene, food kits and other items. We can’t thank everyone enough for volunteering your time and services!
. Kristy and Linda from the Basement Salon gave the children free haircuts and nail art.
. Antonia from K’s Event Decorations & Rentals donated colorful balloon centerpieces that the children just loved!
. Lala and Mimi’s Pajama Party donated a pair of pajamas and Project Linus handmade blankets for each child.
. Academic Advancements Tutoring gave out free books and shared how they are helping break down barriers to education.
. First Presbyterian Church Hamilton Square donated school supplies and then offered their church so we could assemble the backpacks. Not only did they have volunteers help with the backpacks but also manning craft tables at the event!
. Last but never least, Doe’rain Deane Photography who took complementary family portraits (just gorgeous).
All the wonderful smiles – children and volunteers alike!
