The last two years we've found one of the most successful kindness projects we've worked on to be our supplies drives. So many have partnered with us to donate food for St. Mary's in helping to feed the homeless, we have been greatly moved and touched by the outpouring of support.
This year we plan to help gather support and resources for two organizations; The St. Mary's food bank and also the Children First Leadership Academy, a local valley school with a high population of students and families who are in need of extra support.
Today, we highlight CHILDREN FIRST LEADERSHIP ACADEMY:
Today, we highlight CHILDREN FIRST LEADERSHIP ACADEMY:
We learned about the Children First Leadership Academy from my cousin Andrea who helped to put on a school supplies drive for them through the business where she works. Children First Leadership Academic is a public charter school serving the needs of homeless children and families in transition here in the valley.
Children First Leadership Academy's vision is to create a positive, nurturing environment for young people to grow and learn as they develop the skills necessary to become leaders of tomorrow. Through reinforcing the commitment to building character and reaching high academic expectations students are encouraged to explore and develop their individual strengths and passions.

There are many items they are in need of. Everything from hygiene to healthcare, food and even clothing. They provide a very comprehensive and detailed list and I know they would be grateful for any and all donations. Please join us in bringing
donation items for this school that is doing amazing work in the Valley. The website with current needs list is below

Oct 6th. Please email Angie for directions.
We truly appreciate the support and donations from so many, including you, which help make these supplies drives such a success.
Until next time,
Angie
