Difference For a Day
Posted 07.26.2009 in Programs
Difference for a Day: We create fun activities joining teens and adults to bridge the gap of trust, build self esteem, and teach that life is limitless.
It’s All About The Kids Foundation organizes and facilitates monthly activities for the children from our Alliance Charities. The Difference for a Day mission is to build self-esteem, trust with adults, teach these wonderful children that anything in life is possible. The activities that we provide are on a monthly and sometime weekly basis. Most of our programs benefit the Toussaint Academy of Arts and Sciences and Storefront. We find that it is critical to impact these fantastic teens before they turn 18 and are dropped from traditional assistance. Our activities help create happy moments for the teens, while teaching them how to create their own happy moments and bright futures. All of our programs are led by Executive Director Angela Brannon with the help of It’s All About the Kids’ sponsors and volunteers. To volunteer for a Program, please contact Angela@ItsAllAboutTheKids.org.

Difference for a Week

Difference for a Week: We provide cellular phones and plans, mentors and provide care packages and other financial support to our college students.
We currently have 11 students in college that we support! Students attend Merced, San Francisco State, UCSD, SDSU, Grossmont College and San Diego City College. We provide them with a cellphone and service, school supplies, books, bus/trolley passes and other financial needs throughout the year. When the students move into dorms or apartments, we take them shopping for bedding, towels and other necessities. Our generous sponsor, REAL DEAL FURNITURE, provides new beds. We send CARE PACKAGES to our out of town students. The in-town students meet with mentors bi-monthly.
WE HELP OUR COLLEGE STUDENTS SUCCEED!
Make A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIFE OF A COLLEGE STUDENT TODAY!
