A couple of weeks ago, we welcomed students from The University of Utah Bennion Center for their annual Legacy of Lowell Saturday Service Project.

Together, they created personal piñatas for each child in our Therapeutic Preschool Program, in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. Each one is filled with scented Play-Doh, a themed coloring and activity book, crayons, fruit leather bars, and helpful fidget toys.

We’re so grateful for the Bennion Center’s continued partnership and for each student who shared part of their Saturday with us to create something fun and meaningful for the kids in our program. Thank you! 🧡
