Help us support and celebrate the 2018 National Children's Mental Health (CMHA) Awareness week! With your support we are working to increase awareness around children's mental health and working to reduce biases and stigma during our annual Community Celebration.
This year's event is on Sat. 4/28/18 at a local elementary school from 11 am - 2 pm. We are planning on entertainment, food, fun, games and activities, costume characters and an award ceremony for children that submitted artwork for our annual art contest.
The entire event is FREE to families and volunteers are welcome to partake of the festivities (outside of a 2-hour minimum shift). Volunteer shifts are in 2 hour increments so that remainder of time you can enjoy the celebration. Plan on having your family meet you and join in on the fun.
Did I mention the event is free . . . ! There will be lots of fun, and interactive activities promoting children's mental health, with a free professionally taken photo (individual or group of any size, pick-up before leaving event) opportunity, all youth artwork will be on display, and free t-shirts will be distributed with t-shirt decorating tables available.
Thank you in advance for considering our cause and supporting our efforts. We are looking forward to hearing from you!
