Each fall, Assistance League® of Greater Placer sponsors the Annual Appeal Fundraiser which helps support Operation School Bell®, our chapter’s largest philanthropic program. Operation School Bell includes programs that provide: school clothing, shoes, school supplies, school representatives, educational puppet shows, and literacy enrichment to children in need throughout the Greater Placer communities who have been referred to us. For example, last fiscal year the school clothing program provided over 1,625 children in need with new clothing, provided 434 school children with backpacks and school supplies, provided 1,223 students with new pairs of shoes, presented educational puppet shows to children, and provided literacy enrichment activities in 4 schools to children in grades 1, 2, and 3.

Assistance League® of Greater Placer,is sponsoring a Fall Coat Drive for the unsheltered in partnership with Rotary Club of Lincoln CA USA. As the weather starts to cool down, we want to ensure that those less fortunate in our community have access to warm winter coats and vests. We are looking to our loyal shoppers and followers to help make this happen.
From September 16 through October 31, we will be collecting donations of men’s (or women's) warm coats and vests at our Thrift Shop in Fiddler Green Plaza at The Women's Club of Lincoln, 499 E Street, Lincoln, CA where Rotary will have a collection box. Our dedicated volunteers will then distribute these much-needed items to those in need. By joining us in this effort, we can make a difference in the lives of many and spread warmth throughout our community. ��Let's come together and make this drive a success.
May warm hearts prevail. Thank you for your support!

A ribbon-cutting ceremony was recently held at Rocklin Taylor House. The mission of Taylor House is to empower young women, ages 18-24, who have experienced foster care or are at risk, by facilitating their transition into adulthood. They provide life skills training, affordable housing, and a nurturing community where these young women feel seen, valued, and heard in order to help them build successful, independent lives. They now have locations in Roseville and Rocklin.
Assistance League® of Greater Placer supports some of the residents of Taylor House by providing renewable scholarships and mentorship so they may pursue post-high school training and education. One of our amazing scholarship recipients, Aisha Khan, is shown documenting the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new Taylor House location. Aisha is studying videography at Sierra College and is now working on a documentary about Taylor House. Also shown are Assistance League Scholarship program mentor, Katie Smith, and her mentee, Gwen, who is a new student at Sierra College. Aisha and Gwen are both residents of Taylor House.
