Christmas in the
Spring
April 2, 2006
Valley Shelter, North Hollywood
L.A. Family Housing's annual Christmas
in the Spring, hosted by generous volunteers from Universal
Studios Hollywood, is always an entertaining, fun-filled event for
children and families living in LAFH's emergency shelter and transitional
living facilities. This year's event, held at our Sydney M. Irmas
Transitional Living Center in North Hollywood, was attended by more
than 300 families and individuals.
Participants at this year's event were treated
to a delicious barbecue chicken meal and enjoyed colorful decorations,
music, toys and games, including cookie decorating and the chance
to build their own exotic banana split! Children were delighted
with the chance to meet Universal character
"Curious George," and also enjoyed getting temporary,
removable tattoos. Santa Claus was on hand to distribute gifts for
both children and adults. Carnival games and prizes added to the
festivities.
Homeless children and families living at L.A. Family
Housing enjoy the generosity and goodwill of many individuals and
organizations during the winter holidays. Christmas in the Spring
reminds us that families are in need of care throughout the year.
L.A. Family Housing extends a great big `THANK
YOU" to Universal Studios for
your tremendous generosity!
