Winter Open House is a holiday event for our clients and their children. It is a carnival atmosphere with gifts for the children (books & stuffed animals), photo op with Santa, lunch made to order, donated desserts, jump house, carnival games, arts & crafts.
Last year we had almost 500 guests - and volunteers are greatly needed to make this a great success!
Training will be offered at 10:30 am on how to interact with survivors and their children that have been exposed to violence. A pizza lunch will be provided to all volunteers working the entire 5 hour shift.
During our Winter Open House we need volunteers to assist in games and activities, help cleaning up eating area and food distribution, and once the event is over clean up games and activities, and move & store tables and chairs.
