We are happy to share photos from our picnic for our Home-Based Early Head Start families, complete with a visit from our local heroes and their K-9 unit.

Additionally, families enjoy two group socials monthly. A big thank you to everyone who joined us and made this event memorable. Check out some snapshots from the day and see how we're supporting families with educational and fun activities throughout the year! #NVFS #FamilyFun #FireSafety #EarlyHeadStart

Summer is here, and school's out! It's the perfect time for families with teens to volunteer and make a difference. At NVFS, we offer several ways for you and your teens to get involved. 👨👩👧👦 Why Volunteer as a Family? - Set An Example: Demonstrate the importance of community support through actions. - Quality Time: Create lasting memories while working towards a common goal. - Teach Empathy: Help your teen develop emotional intelligence by interacting with diverse communities. - Promote Lifelong Learning: Show that learning happens everywhere, not just in school. - Skill Development: Both teens and adults can learn valuable skills through volunteering. Volunteer Opportunities: Teens aged 16+ can volunteer independently at our Thrift Shop and Hunger Resource Center (HRC). Youth aged 12-15 can volunteer with a parent at the Thrift Shop, and those aged 14-15 can join a parent at the HRC. For families with children younger than 12, consider hosting a food drive in your community. It’s a great way to support those in need and involve younger children in giving back. Join us and show your children the power of community support! Sign up now: https://lnkd.in/g_hNyuek #Volunteer #FamilyTime #NVFS #CommunitySupport #SummerOfService
