We would like to extend a thank you to the Celebrate Children Foundation for the grant that allowed us to share the book "It Takes a Forest" with the families and volunteers we work with in our chapter.

Children's books do so much more than encourage early literacy; they create intentional moments of closeness. When parents and children read together, they build the vital emotional connections that strengthen families.

This beautiful story also reminds us of how vital a community is in supporting every family.

What a day! πŸ’™ We’re so grateful to everyone who came out to support Safe Families for Children and make this year’s Clay Shoot such a success.

A few high lights from our event earlier this month:
πŸ‘₯ 11 teams came out to play and support the cause
🍽️ Many more joined us simply for lunch and good company
🎟️ So many people got in on the fun with our raffle prizes and silent auction
πŸŽ‰ And the biggest highlight of all… we doubled what we raised last year!

That incredible milestone wouldn’t have been possible without our participants, sponsors, donors, volunteers, and everyone who helped make the day so special.

Thank you for showing up, having fun, giving generously, and believing in what we do.
Our families and children are forever grateful for the direct impact your support has on them.
