Central Oregon Sparrow Clubs The ultimate goal of Sparrow Clubs is to impact youth culture by imprinting compassion, generosity, and integrity on the hearts of kids in local schools.

Sparrow Clubs USA is a youth-based non-profit organization that changes lives by inspiring and empowering kids to help kids in medical need through compassion, kindness, and sponsored community service. We believe that compassion can overcome anger, that generosity can overcome selfishness, and that integrity can overcome apathy. The Sparrow Clubs program compels and motivates kids of all ages to look beyond themselves for the sake of serving others in need – not just the family of a child in medical need, but others throughout our community. Serving others leads to change at a heart level. A Sparrow Club is launched when three key elements come together:

A Sparrow child (local child, age 0-17, in medical need/crisis).

2. A local school (elementary, middle/jr. high, high school, public or private) willing to "adopt" this child as their Sparrow.

3. Community Club Sponsors (local businesses, foundations, donors). Students at the adopting school meet their Sparrow during an all-school assembly. The values of Sparrow Clubs and the child’s story are told through powerful speech and age-appropriate video. Once students learn about their Sparrow child, they are challenged to make a difference through community service. Each school is challenged to complete a minimum of 300 hours of community service to others, on behalf of their Sparrow. For every hour of service completed (up to the 300 challenge mark), kids earn $10 for their Sparrow, paid by the Community Club Sponsors. Community Club Sponsors donate this money based on the expectation that the students will do service to earn it for their Sparrow. Students are required to fill out "Sparrow Community Service Vouchers," which are verified by parents and teachers, in order for their service to count.

Today Crook County Middle School gathered in the gym to celebrate and see their Sparrow, Bryson, one last time for the school year. These students worked hard and completed 539 hours of community service to benefit Bryson and unlock seed money for his family to help provide and care for him. They surpassed the goal of 300 hours and showed us how tight-knit a small community can be. Both Bryson's parents attended CCMS, so the whole club was characterized by the warmth of a family surrounding one of their own. The students filled out vouchers explaining what doing community service for Bryson meant to them, and they echoed that sentiment of being a family again and again.

One special 8th grader found us after the assembly to share her heart and how moved she was by Bryson. She shared that she has endured her own grief and loss of family members, and that helping Bryson made her feel happy again. As we all hugged and shared a couple tears, we were reminded of the impact a Sparrow can have on a young heart, and a school, and whole community. Well done Crook County Middle School!

The students at Mountain View High School gathered together in the gym today to celebrate their graduates and "Move Up" into the next phase of their high school experiences. The year wouldn't be complete, though, if we didn't share and celebrate the success of their Sparrow Club for Micah this year! These students tallied 1,583 hours of community service and unlocked the donated seed money for Micah and his family, which has been helpful as they have had multiple trips to and from Portland for various complications in his first year of life. They also raised thousands of dollars with their fundraising efforts to support multiple sparrows in Central Oregon. We are always so impressed with the attitudes of servant leadership these high school students demonstrate. Thanks for another great Sparrow Club year at MVHS!

Shout out and a big THANK YOU to our Central Oregon Community Club Sponsors who make this program possible for students: Central Oregon Radiology Associates, P.C., Pahlisch Homes Inc., BASX, Summit Health Oregon, PacificSource Health Plans, Kendall Toyota of Bend, COPA (Central Oregon Pediatric Associates), Mountain View Heating Inc., SunWest Builders, and The Weitzman Family Foundation.

This morning, I had the pleasure of sharing the success of Pilot Butte Middle School's Sparrow Club, where these middle schoolers went BIG for their sparrow, Ivry. While Ivry is one of their own, fighting cancer for the 2nd time, her classmates rallied and completed 688 hours of community service in just a few short months... but that's not all. They also took the time to share what it meant to them to help Ivry by writing reflections that Ivry and her family will get to read. These vouchers will be around long after the money these kids unlocked is gone. The students shared that helping Ivry helped them feel impactful to their community and they were gratified to know what a difference they made for their sparrow. Compassion came alive in real time, and it was an honor to stand in front of this group of kids and thank them for their hard work!

Thank you so very much to all of our generous Central Oregon Community Club Sponsors who make this program possible for students: Central Oregon Radiology Associates, P.C., Pahlisch Homes Inc., BASX, Summit Health Oregon, PacificSource Health Plans, Kendall Toyota of Bend, COPA (Central Oregon Pediatric Associates), Mountain View Heating Inc., SunWest Builders, and The Weitzman Family Foundation.

It’s been a great week of Redmond Sparrow Club Wrap Ups! As the school year comes to a close, we were able to visit Redmond High School, Ridgeview High School, and Sage Elementary to celebrate the incredible amount of kindness, compassion, and service that each of these schools put out into the world this year on behalf of their Sparrows, Lilly (Redmond High), Jett (Ridgeview High), and Elmer (Sage Elementary).

Not only did these school complete a combined 2600+ hours of community service on behalf of their Sparrows and raise tens of thousands of dollars for these sweet kids, they also showed these families that, in the midst of their darkest and scariest challenges…they were NOT alone. Being alone is probably one of the most universal fears that we have as people and coming alongside others to show them that they are seen…that they are not alone…is one of the greatest gifts we can give.

We are so proud of all of these students and so very proud of and thankful for the generous Redmond community. We’d also like to send out a big thank you to our generous Central Oregon Community Club Sponsors who make these projects possible: Central Oregon Radiology Associates, P.C., Pahlisch Homes Inc., BASX, Summit Health Oregon, PacificSource Health Plans, Kendall Toyota of Bend, COPA (Central Oregon Pediatric Associates), Mountain View Heating Inc., SunWest Builders.,and The Weitzman Family Foundation.

Today at Caldera High School we got to come together and celebrate one of the most special Sparrow experiences with Mia and her family. The students at Caldera have created a culture of support, encouragement, and a spirit of service for one of their own. They completed 682 hours of community service and raised thousands of dollars on behalf of their sparrow, Mia. They are a true Wolfpack and we are so proud of how they have embodied compassion and helped this precious family cling to hope and joy in a difficult season as Mia continues her fight against cancer.

The biggest "Thank You" to all of our generous Central Oregon Community Club Sponsors who make this program possible for students: Central Oregon Radiology Associates, P.C., Pahlisch Homes Inc.BBASX, Summit Health Oregon, PacificSource Health Plans, Kendall Toyota of Bend, COPA (Central Oregon Pediatric Associates), Mountain View Heating Inc., SunWest Builders, and The Weitzman Family Foundation.
