Hey, Parents and Families!
No age is too young when it comes to helping your kids help others. The lessons learned through volunteering will stick with them for life. Children for Children wants your family to Grow Involved!

- The Celebrations Program helps your child share his or her next birthday, holiday or milestone event with another child. You can get your child’s school or class involved as well! (For more formal celebrations CFC has attractive Book Basket Centerpieces for sale that benefit under-resourced schools.)
