Reading Buddies and Birthday Books
Members of the Auxiliary read with children who need extra help once a week. Each child is allowed to choose a new book for his or her birthday.

Personalized Items
We provide each child with several personalized items, including a duffel bag to hold their belongings, a pillowcase, and a backpack filled with presents for their birthday.
Parties
We sponsor parties for the children at Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Halloween. We do a Luau in August and bring Ice Cream trucks to the Village in the summer.
Special Events
We host special events for the children throughout the year. One of the most popular is a petting zoo with exotic animals.
Leadership Outings
Children chosen by members of their group homes participate in outings once a month. Children chose pumpkins for Halloween at Millers Farm and played mini-golf.
Enrichment Activities
We provide special programs for children of different ages. Re-enactors spoke to middle-school aged children about the Civil War.
