Please Support our Community Service Project

CHANGE IS HAPPENING!” COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT


UPDATE


Youth On Their Own (YOTO): Educating homeless teens; investing in Tucson’s future.


For those of you have already reached out to support the CIH community outreach project for YOTO, we thank you! Our projects support not only President Obama’s request for us to become more involved in our communities, but also to support the Administration’s priorities of Education, Healthcare, Economy and Energy/Environment.

I just spoke with Gina Babunovic, Communications & Development Director for YOTO. She was pleased to share that the amount of CIH monetary donations now stands at $365. These gifts were mailed directly to her office (1443 W. Prince Rd., Tucson, AZ 85705), with CIH written on the memo line. Please continue to spread the word about this worthy non-profit.

Community Service working group members, Holly & Grant Hilden grantandholly@aol.com,

Julie Overman Julie.Overman@cox.net, and Peggy Pierce voteaction2@cox.net share that donations for hygiene kits have been rather slow. Please contact them if you have donations.
