Over
1600 Friends of the Title I
Homeless Project
Volunteered in
2009-2010!
Volunteers
contribute IMMEASURABLY to the Title I
Homeless Project! Here are just a few examples:
- United Way Young Leaders
provided caps and gowns for graduating seniors who are homeless.
- Keshet Dance Company provided free dance and yoga
classes at eight tutoring sites, serving about 300 elementary and high
school students.
- Manzano Day School and Southwest Learning Academy
students filled backpacks with school
supplies and helped in the pre-school.
- La Cueva teachers and ADK Gamma Educational Honorary
Teachers baked
birthday cakes every month for the tutoring program students.
- Local churches, civic groups, and schools provided
non-perishable food items for homeless students and families each
week this school year.
- The Albuquerque Master Gardeners assisted with our
gardens at several schools.
- The Junior League of Albuquerque filled packbacks
several times. One JLA
member provided extensive inservice on dental care for students in
afterschool programs.
- Hairstylists throughout the city provided
back-to-school cuts and styling for secondary students.
Contributions by many other community volunteers are too
numerous to
list, but we wish to thank each and every one of them for making life a
little bit better for homeless children and their families. THANK YOU,
VOLUNTEERS!
