💚 Grateful for Community Partnership & Impact 💚

The Stockton (CA) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated extends our sincere thanks to the CVAR Stockton Council for their generous donation and continued commitment to our community.

Through our Services to Youth facet, we have been working diligently to support emancipated foster youth by providing suitcases, essential personal items, and food items that represent dignity, stability, and care during a critical transition into independence.

For many youth leaving foster care, having a suitcase instead of a trash bag, access to daily essentials, and a reliable source of food makes a powerful difference. These donations help restore confidence, meet immediate needs, and remind our young people that they are seen, valued, and supported.

Thank you, CVAR Stockton Council, for standing with us and investing in the future of our youth. Together, we are building stronger, more compassionate communities…one act of gratitude at a time. 💙✨

Happy Kwanzaa!
On the sixth day of Kwanzaa we celebrate the principle of Kuumba or Creativity which means to do always as much as we can to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.

💚 Giving Thanks in Service!💚

The Stockton (CA) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated continues to embody the spirit of service and friendship through action. Our members recently donated 17 suitcases filled with essential care items to foster youth at AspireNet.

Each suitcase included personal essentials such as a comb, toothpaste, toothbrush, deodorant, soap, shampoo, floss, shaving cream, and a razor…small items that make a big difference in helping youth feel seen, valued, and supported during life transitions.

A heartfelt thank you to our Services to Youth (STY) Facet Committee for leading this meaningful effort and to every member who contributed with generosity and love.

Together, we’re building brighter futures…one act of kindness at a time. 💚✨
