Thank you Sandpipers for bringing Sandpiper Summer Art to our Kids Club! Every week, our Kids Club Summer Camp students have fun with a new art project with our Sandpiper volunteers. Last week, they made beautiful jellyfish to hang on the wall! We can’t wait to see what other projects our students work on this summer.

Sandpipers is a volunteer organization dedicated to serving the South Bay through a diverse range of philanthropic programs. They have been supporting Richstone and our Kids Club for many years, and we are incredibly grateful for them.

Congratulations to our Kids Club alumna, Allison Hidalgo. Allison graduated from Kids Club and went on to volunteer for the program throughout high school. She is an enthusiastic, hard working student, and the first recipient of our Richstone Kids Club Scholarship.

This scholarship was made possible by a generous donor volunteer. We are proud to announce that Allison will be attending Cal State Fullerton in the fall, working towards a degree in Kinesiology.

When asked about her time in Kids Club as a student and volunteer, Allison said this: “I always deeply enjoyed getting to be best friends with the volunteers. So I wanted to be that volunteer that I looked up to for the kids…I will forever be eternally grateful that kids allowed me to make that connection with them and making my time as a volunteer the best thing that ever happened in my life” 

Allison also expressed her gratitude for our loving Kids Club staff, “A BIG thank you to Jose & Monique for allowing me to come back and give back to my community whilst cherishing every moment of it before I head off to college!!” We could not be more proud of Allison for her accomplishments and can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Through fun books and exciting activities, the students are growing and learning so much! Last week, students read food themed books and decorated cookies.

The LGBTQIA+ community experiences disproportionately high rates of mental health struggles. If you or someone you love is struggling, you can get support at Richstone or one of these queer-focused resources.
