Sheltered Yoga's KIDS Day the last week of August
The last week in August and first week in September is when all the food programs have a gap in giving so MANY kids and parents are hungry. This happens all over NJ and Pennsylvania, among other states. It's a very difficult time for the families that are struggling. Every year, the last week of August, we have a big Kids Themed Day. For example, one year it was called "Hoops, Hatha, and Hope". It was three workshops; basketball, yoga, and a social-emotional learning activity. The kids (usually 60-80 in total) get split into 3 groups and in the course of the day get to attend each workshop. The day includes breakfast, lunch, lots of snacks and water, and a huge take-home bag of snacks, school supplies, toiletries, etc. The kids have a GREAT time and get to have another day of healthy food to eat. This day is approximately $3,500 to run- which includes everything.
Donating to this event will make many children happy and their parent(s)/guardian relieved that school supplies, toiletries, and snacks will significantly decrease their costs to have their child start school that September with all their needs met.
We thank you in advance for your support.
