Advanced Career Institute is sponsoring our 8th annual community service event for the holidays: Toys for Tots & Gifts for Seniors!
Last year we were able to collect and distribute toys to several hundred children! * * Unfortunately, we ran short on senior citizen gifts and were not able to fulfill all requests – so we really need help for those individuals! * *
Toys for Tots:
We are collecting new, unwrapped toys for children of all ages!
Gifts for Seniors:
We are collecting as many basic need items as possible for our less fortunate senior citizens.
Items include new blankets, slippers, socks, basic need toiletries, etc…
From the US Census Bureau: 19.2% of Visalia residents live at or below poverty level, and as many as 7500 kids in Visalia alone are at or below poverty level. Approx. 2500 seniors 65 years of age and older are below poverty level in Visalia Ca.
In addition to our regular gift collection, the event on Sunday will also include a LIFE Car Show from 11:00am-4:00pm!
Entry Fee: Donation of a gift for either a child or senior citizen is requested.
Trophies will be awarded!
If you have any questions about this event, would like to request gifts for a child or senior, or you know of a child or senior citizen that is in need, please contact Larry by email or phone: [email protected]; office: <a href=”tel:15596511978″>(559) 651-1978</a>
