WEAR BLUE FOR CHILDREN’S GRIEF AWARENESS DAY

Children’s Grief Awareness Day is November 15, 2018.  The day is designed to help us all become more aware of the needs of grieving children and of the benefits they obtain through the support of others.  Created in 2008 by the Highmark Caring Place, a center for grieving children and their families, it has since become recognized by organizations around the world.  This time of year is a particularly appropriate time to support grieving children because the holiday season is often especially difficult time for them.  Please join us in wearing BLUE to show our love and support.  Thank you!

GENTLY USED PRESCRIPTION EYE GLASSES NEEDED 

The CV Africa Club is collecting gently used prescription eye glasses in order to aid African children/parents. To help out, we will be collecting glasses here at Hampden through November 21.  This is a great way to recycle prescription glasses that you no longer need.  A collection box will be available in the Hampden office to receive your eye glass donations.

THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY BREAK
