My team and I got to directly support some of the families that would be impacted from the funds raised through Guest Give. A couple of our team members even chose to go back and volunteer on their own later on. These experiences are very special for us all. I am so proud of my team and their hard work!

Volunteering has been incredibly rewarding, providing me with valuable opportunities to contribute to meaningful causes and make a positive impact on the lives of others.

Educating the youth on healthy lifestyle choices is the only way to break the broken food system and lack of providing education on living healthy and happy. Seeing the amount of joy and excitement in the children each time I attend the workshop becomes a new favorite experience.

The Healthy Habits workshops bring a fun energy to our classroom! The activities are kid-friendly, engaging and hands-on which the kids have very much enjoyed. Thank you for bringing the fun to La Mesita Youth Services Program!
