9th Annual Back to School Outreach Program
Saturday, Aug 6th from 11am-2pm
Every child deserves access to the simplest of necessities. Many children in L.A. County, however, don’t own a new pair of shoes, nor have access to proper shoe sizes. Since Aug. 2006, A Child’s Dream-CA has helped custom-fit over 700 children (K-12) with new shoes, socks, backpacks, school supplies and hygiene kits. This year, with the help of Plumfund, a unique crowd-gifting platform, they are helping to meet those essential needs. For more information on how you can help to make A Child’s Dream come true, visit www.achildsdream-ca.org or donate to their Plumfund. This August, let’s ensure no child goes without.
