 Active 20-30 US & Canada provides young adults with an opportunity for personal growth, friendships and leadership development while improving the quality of life for the special needs children in their community.
"One never stands so tall as when kneeling to help a child"
Many thanks to all the members and friends of Active 20-30 who donated to help the victims of the Haiti earthquake. So far, over $6,100 has been raised. A wire transfer has already been made and we are waiting to hear about the impact the funds are making in Haiti.
A very special contribution was received from Irene M. Snow Elementary School in Napa California. Snow Elementary School is a Title 1 School but the students made efforts to raise funds to help those in Haiti. The school has been supported by members of Active 20-30 Club of Napa #57 for many years and as a way to thank them they are supporting Active 20-30's efforts to help earthquake victims in Haiti.
Active 20-30 would like to extend a very special thank you to Snow Elementary School.
