Over the holiday break, one family chose a truly meaningful way to celebrate—by giving back. Instead of exchanging gifts with one another, they went shopping for items to donate, generously fulfilling many wishes from our Mental Health Wellness Kit Supply list. What a beautiful way to spread joy while teaching their young ones the power of kindness and generosity.

We are so grateful to have received five full bags of supplies for our Mental Health Wellness Kits. From sleep masks, water bottles, hand lotions, protein bars, tea bags, and fidget toys, these thoughtful items will bring comfort, care, and support to those who receive them.

Thank you to this incredible family for going above and beyond. Your generosity is making a real and lasting impact in the lives of the children and teens we serve. 💙

We are excited to share that Children's Center has been selected as LJ's Cafe's Charity of the Month!🎉 LJ's Cafe is committed to raising awareness for local nonprofits, and we’re incredibly grateful for their partnership.

Stop by LJ’s Cafe and enjoy a delicious Devon’s Dip—$1 from every sandwich sold this month will be donated to Children’s Center! ❤️

What’s in a Devon’s Dip? Roast beef, havarti cheese, grilled onions, and horseradish on a perfectly toasted roll, served with au jus for dipping. Yum! 🥖🍖

Thank you for helping make healing and hope possible for children and families in our community. Together, we can build a safer, stronger community.
