Last week we celebrated our hard working volunteers at Youth Volunteer Appreciation Night. Our fabulous volunteers, Justine Wayne and Elena Petcu are pictured here with our Community Projects Manager, Vivette Martin. Thanks again, ladies!

We would like to thank everyone who helped make this year's Kids First Day another great success! To our community partners who opened their doors to children all across the city, and to the Kiwanis Club of Forest City London who sponsored the event. Without your continued support, Kids First Day would not be possible. THANK YOU!! To see our gallery of photos, click here.

It's National Volunteer Week! We want to thank all of our wonderful volunteers who help make our programs that much better! THANK YOU!! Marcie Pridding, a Human Resources and Administrative Coordinator at Harrison Pensa Law Firm, took time out of her busy schedule to volunteer for our Literacy Nights in February. Thanks to Marcie and to all of our other volunteers who make a difference.

Sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Forest City London
