Our child care program, First Step is hosting a Halloween party for our infants, toddlers and preschoolers! The party will involve making "Bat Slime", participating in a pumpkin ring toss and Trick or Treating around our office building.
We need help from volunteers to assist our teachers in setting up the event and supporting them throughout the event. This includes, but is not limited to, setting up the craft and ring toss stations and helping kids to participate. Leading kids throughout the office building so that they may show off their Halloween Costumes. Also, there will be food and drink so teachers will need support while the kids eat.
We are also looking for support in the form of donations.
For this event we require:
1. White Glue, Liquid Starch and Small Bats (for Bat Slime)
2. Four (4) Large Pumpkins (for Ring Toss)
3. Food and Beverage for 28 Spooky Kids! (That could be in the form of a gift card for pizza or sandwiches or providing various food for sandwiches, fruit and veggies etc.)
4. Candy or small toys to give to kids as they Trick or Treat
If you are able to provide any kind of support in the form of a donation of time, supplies or food towards this event for our First Step program, or if you have questions, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at 612-877-7826 or volunteer@familywiseservices.org.

Strengthening Families by Promoting the Safety, Stability, and Well-being of Children.
Description
FamilyWise is a local nonprofit that helps our community’s most vulnerable children and families. Many of these families come to us with a history of poverty, domestic violence and homelessness. Your volunteering and financial support helps break this cycle of despair and gives them hope for a better future.
Our goal is to promote social change by strengthening families and the community through programs that:
- Educate parents on skills needed to lead stable lives and provide safe homes for their children.
- Empower families to achieve self-sufficiency and to advocate for themselves and their children.
- Enrich the lives of children, youth and families, enabling them to lead healthy, productive family lifestyles.
"Volunteering at FamilyWise opened my eyes to a whole new world where children and families from all walks of life are treated with dignity and respect. It made me feel good to know that I was helping contribute in a meaningful way to the greater good."
