Community Service has been working with the Backyard Players & Friends (BYP) and Love Nana in collecting items needed for the children and families who are at Cohen Children's Medical Center and those staying at the Ronald McDonald House.
We want to thank all of our members who so generously donatd to these causes. We delivered to them, Ouch Babies, blankets, clothes, toiletries, diapers, etc., which will be sorted and packaged by the young adults and teens who are part of the programs at BYP and Love Nana. All the packages will have our logo on them along with that of BYP or Love Nana.
Sometime later in the year, date to be announced, we will get to meet the wonderful young people of these communities and assist them in gettting the gift packages together. BYP is a nonporfit organization tht helps those 14 and older who are developmentally disabled, as well as those who are neurodivergent, develop skills through their many different programs. If you would like to check out their amazing work, their websire is BYPandfriends.com

We are always looking for new ideas and groups that need our help. If you know of any, or have any questions, please contact Marcia Steele or Ellen Gitlin.
