A summer smile: Colorado Rural Health Center’s sporting equipment drive to Sun Valley Youth Center
0 Comments
During the month of July, Colorado Rural Health Center’s Wellness Committee hosted a sporting equipment and sports safety equipment drive for Sun Valley Youth Center. Sun Valley is incredibly deserving, located in one of the poorest neighborhoods in the Denver Metropolitan area. Sun Valley Youth Center focuses on transforming the lives of at-risk youth in the low-income, public housing neighborhood by providing everything from day care, to youth development and mentoring.
The Colorado Rural Health Center knew this equipment drive was a big project and reached to other companies in the community. The response was overwhelming! We collected everything from Frisbees to bicycle helmets, hockey sticks and many things in between! We were able to deliver two boxes and several bags worth of goodies to the youth center at the end of the month. Bringing over the boxes, CRHC was met by all the excited children helping to unload the car.
