Stand Up For Kids

Friday, December 12th, 2008

We’ve been hearing alot about “Stand Up For Kids” lately, a national organization that helps homeless at-risk youth. They have centers right here in Oceanside and in San Diego.

Girlfriends Care is working on one or more projects to benefit the youth they serve for January and ongoing, but if you feel called to help sooner, here’s how.

Jason Coker of TwoShirts.org, one of our partner organizations, is leading an effort right now.  They are sponsoring a food and clothing drive between now and January 2nd by collecting new socks, new or gently used jeans, and non-perishable food (especially items such as canned soups, ravioli, spaghetti and other foods with pop-top lids)

Learn more about  Stand Up For Kids by clicking on this link.  Read about Jason and Janelle’s personal visit to the center and how you can help at  Check out all the details here. 

Your feedback is always welcome. Thanks for your giving hearts.
