Voices for Kids supports children who are going through the court system because of family issue. Their programs, along with the Guardian Ad Litem program, makes sure the kids have an advocate. Our dollars are going towards providing supplies for kids being placed in foster care.
Literacy Council of Bonita Springs is doing lots of programs, but we specifically funded their program to teach English skills to pre-schoolers and their moms. This way the kids aren't starting school with an unfair advantage and their moms can support their language skills at home.
The Calusa Nature Center was started by the JLFM when a group of League members created an educational program which took educational tools relating to SWFL's natural environment. Due to budget cuts, many school field trips have stopped kids from being brought to the CNC, and now the CNC can take their hands-on programs back into the schools.
I brought my "nice" camera -- but sadly forgot to put the SD card in! Yikes! So, I had to use my cell phone.
I love the feel-good days...
