L to R:
On Saturday June 20 a volunteer group from New Life Church's The Crossing came out to help with some yard work. They spent the entire morning weeding and filled up the back of the Vision House truck with yard debris. They made a huge impact with helping us create a more nurturing environment for our resident families! Thank you New Life Church!!!
Our Vision House Children’s Village kids had fun with volunteers John and Mike raking the new chips into their play area. There was some great teamwork going on! Two of the girls even shared a rake and worked together to spread the chips. The play area is almost complete – they can’t wait to climb on the jungle jim!
John Camerer (Vision House founder on backhoe) and Glenn Wolff (part-time maintenance tech) doing some clearing in order to build a one-foot enclosure around the play structure to spread play chips. Keeping our kids safe when they’re playing is of utmost importance!
The kids had a great time trying to break the piñata and dive for candy! They each got at least two turns whacking it until it finally burst and they scooped up the candy in their candy bags. They had so much fun!
Over the last several months girl scout troop 42204 have been busy making fleece quilted blankets and collecting almost 200 books for the children at Vision House. Each blanket is beautifully assembled with a kind encouraging note attached to each for a child. Through completion of this project both Megan and Emily will receive their bronze award! Thank you girls for your thoughtful gifts to the Vision House children!
Yesterday a group of Bellevue Community College students spent the afternoon at Vision House learning about our organization and volunteering. They weeded around one of our play sets and weed whacked part of the field. For their intercultural communications class Katie, Farm, and Shinji chose to do a project that focused on the homeless in our community. They were a fun and passionate group of students and we appreciate all their help with our yard maintenance and their desire to further their education around the issue of homelessness in the community.
