On Saturday, April 25th at 6:00 pm, we proudly hosted our Movie Night for autistic children and their families. It was a beautiful evening filled with joy, laughter, and togetherness. Food and drinks were generously donated by the Customs and Excise Department – Big Creek Branch, while toys were kindly provided by the Independence Village Council.
The children had the opportunity to enjoy a fun and relaxing outing—watching a movie, playing, and even swinging under our beautiful pergola, graciously donated by Blue Nutrients. Most importantly, the evening was all about celebrating these amazing children and giving them a space to feel happy, included, and appreciated.

Our final preschool visit for the Child Stimulation Program was with the students of Church of Christ Preschool at the library. The children had a wonderful time engaging in storytelling, dancing to educational music, and participating in arts and craft activities.
Once again, snacks and treat bags were generously donated by the Big Creek Branch Customs and Excise Enforcement Department, who recognize the importance of collaborating with the community to improve access to learning opportunities for children.
Thank you

Tuesday and Wednesday visits to the Library were from San Isidro Preschool and Nazarene Preschool. The children enjoyed dancing, story time, and arts and crafts, and once again enjoyed juices, fruit plates, and gift bags generously donated by the Independence Branch Customs and Excise Department.
It was wonderful to see the smiles and excitement on the children’s faces as they participated in their Child Stimulation activities.
