Casa Central Volunteer Project

Posted on January 9, 2020January 10, 2020 by Lerner and Rowe Gives Back

Chicago Educational Arts & Crafts Session at Casa Central

Our Chicagoland Outreach team is starting the new year strong! This week, several staff members participated in a Casa Central volunteer project.

Since 1954, Casa Central has delivered evidence-based, award-winning programming in response to the needs of the Hispanic community. Our volunteer staff worked on an educational craft with the center’s Early Learning Academy.

Each child had the opportunity to decorate a cardboard roll, color a letter of the alphabet, and a picture that corresponded. At the end of our Casa Central volunteer project, we lined up each letter in order and practiced our alphabet on some fun worksheets.

What a great group of bright and energetic children to work with! Thanks to Casa Central for all that you do to help inspire and develop the lives of these wonderful children!

What Is the Hip to Chip Program?

#LovePup’s It’s Hip to Chip program is an ongoing Maricopa County program that provides a FREE microchip to every dog that gets adopted from the county shelters. Microchips serve as important permanent identification that gets implanted in your dog so they can be scanned and later reunited with you if they ever get lost.
