Speaking at Intel soon...

As i have written about in the past, SCA is partnered with United Way to raise awareness and funds for our organization. Each company that participates in the United Way's giving program has a kickoff-type event, where a nonprofit comes and makes a presentation about who they are and what they do. Obviously, when you are the speaker at an event like this, there is a good chance that your nonprofit will receive most of the money. The only problem is, the companies decide who gets to come, so it can be difficult to get a spot with a large company.

INTEL chose SCA!

We are so excited to go talk to them about who we are and what we do in the community. We are not sure of the exact date yet, but we can't wait!

School Supplies for Children

Here at SCA, our main goal is to make sure that children are placed in an appropriate, safe home, and that they can live happy and healthy lives. However, we do try to help out our clients in any way possible.

One way that you can help us help the kids, in addition to your financial donation, is to donate school supplies to SCA. Many foster kids do not have all of the supplies that they need to succeed in school, and your donation of crayons, paper, pens, glue, or any other school supplies can make a difference.

The best part is, it barely costs anything! Many stores have "1-cent" sales going on right now - next time you're out, spend that 10 cents to get 10 pencils or notebooks, and make a difference in the life of a child.

United Way

Katie, Stephanie, and Krystal just returned from a presentation class at United Way. They were so helpful in giving us tips on how to speak to the various agencies that support us through United Way, and to tell us more about their "Live United" campaign.

We are so excited to be a part of United Way, and can't wait to speak at the upcoming agency fairs!
