Two new partnerships!

Hello and Welcome to the Community Connections blog!

We have just started a new partnership with the city of Sunnyvale. Every other friday we go to the Sunnyvale Community Services site and help with a variety of tasks. We work in the donation closet, help with gifts, organize food and help with whatever we can.

The Director has been so happy with our work-she has emailed several times to compliment our participants. Sunnyvale is a new area for us and we are excited to be having new opportunities. Everyone seems to be having a terrific time helping out.

Hopefully in the future we will be working at other sites in Sunnyvale.

We have also started a new project at Lytton Gardens Senior Center. Every monday a group of our participants goes to Lytton Gardens and hosts a Bingo game for the residents.

"Our residents absolutely love our Bingo game-day with your participants," notes volunteer coordinator Bethany Dihn. "They bring so much joy to our residents."

We might even film this project for our next television program!

Stay tuned for more exciting updates. And thanks for reading.
