  Serving Dinner at St. Vincent de Paul
  On Friday 2/22 we'll be back to serve dinner to families in need at SVDP! 

  The St. Vincent de Paul Society of Milwaukee is an organization dedicated to the elimination of hunger and poverty in our community.  They provide free meals 5 nights per week at this location, as well as at a location on Milwaukee's south side.  Last year, they served over 102,000 meals, over 15,000 of those meals were served to children.

  There are TWO opportunities to serve:

  1) SBK families will help serve dinner to 100+ adults and children. These SBK families can bring 100% juice & gently used children's books if you have them to share with the guests as well as serve them dinner, but it is not required. Max capacity 10 families, all ages welcome. 

  NOTE: There is no specific age requirement, but because we will be serving to the public, SVDP reminds us that it is very important to be attentive to your kids during the project. 

  2) Families can donate items prior. For those who want to serve but cannot be at the project, you can donate gently used children/youth books or 100% fruit juice ahead of time.  All items will need to be dropped off at our planner's home in Elm Grove prior (address details to come to those who sign up).  No maximum capacity. 

  Thank you for lending a hand!

  On Saturday 3/2 we will be back at TOPSoccer--we had so much fun that we want to keep doing this project regularly.   

  US Youth Soccer TOPSoccer is a community-based training and team placement program for young athletes with disabilities. The program is designed to bring the opportunity of learning and playing soccer to any boy or girl, who has a mental or physical disability. Our goal is to enable the thousands of young athletes with disabilities to become valued and successful members of the US Youth Soccer family. 

  From 12-1pm the participants will be 4-11 years old. You can inquire about staying for the 12-21 year old group at 1-2pm, but do not need to stay. Their needs vary for this age group. 

  While just a guideline on this one, we recommend this project for ages 6+ to maximize our ability to interact with the participants. Capacity 6 families (we'll be joining other volunteers this project so we need to start small with our groups). 

  NOTE: Can't make it but love this project idea as much as we do? Sign up for other dates using this Sign Up Genius link from Gigi's Playhouse and the YMCA. PLEASE DO NOT use this link for this project date -- we have already reserved spots for 10 Sunbeam Kids kids. If you sign up for other dates please post in the FB group in case other families want to join you!

  Thank you for your interest! Registration is now open to Sunbeam Kids members. 

  On Sunday 3/3 we will be doing a project with a new community partner -- Foresthill Highlands Senior Living Community for 55+. 

  For our first project together we'll be doing a friendship themed craft project with the residents of the community to build intergenerational friendships, then enjoy some refreshments together.  Foresthill Highlands will be providing the craft supplies, but we will let you know if we need to bring any refreshments for our hosts. 

  We're looking forward to trying something new thanks to Nicole Cassidy, one of our Advisory Council members, who kindly planned this project. Thanks, Nicole! This project is sure to bring a smile to all involved. 

  This project is open to all ages. Capacity 8-10 families.
