Support Shalimar Learning Center's Food Drive
We are teaming up with Think Together’s Shalimar Learning Center to help them raise funds for families who have lost their income during the coronavirus crisis. From June 8th through June 30th, we will be collecting non-perishable food and goods like household paper products, diapers and formula. The items will be donated to families with students enrolled in the organization’s afterschool programs.
For over 25 years, the Shalimar Learning Center has been providing a safe afterschool environment for kids to get help with homework, prepare for college, and set themselves up for future success. The Shalimar Learning Center serves lower-income families and students; people who work every day to build a better life for themselves.
Many of the parents of these students are hourly workers — housekeepers, gardeners, restaurant workers and hotel personnel — without severance benefits. When the coronavirus crisis hit, many of them went from working full-time jobs to being forced out of work.
When we heard about the Shalimar Relief Fund , we knew we had to help.
Throughout the COVID-19 crisis, we’ve been helping hard working people financially survive as part of our NuvisionCares program. From feeding frontline healthcare workers to helping 14 small restaurant owners keep their businesses open and their employees paid, we are dedicated to doing everything we can to help our members and the communities we serve get through the crisis.
We invite you to drop of the following items and one of our donation centers:
· Non-perishable food
· Baby wipes and diapers (sizes 2,3,4,5)
· Formula
· Household paper goods, cleaning supplies, personal hygiene items
· Gift cards: Grocery (Smart and Final/Stater Bros) and Gas (Arco, Shell, Chevron)
