Let’s start Monday off right by highlighting our wonderful summer interns! A big THANK YOU to each of these young scholars who donated their time and efforts to give back to East Bakersfield. Together, they created fun summer enrichment activities for children in the neighborhood to enjoy at the David Nelson Pocket Park! We appreciate the compassion and hard work you all put in executing your vision in the last two weeks! Great work! More to come!

With the start of the school year quickly approach

With the start of the school year quickly approaching, Children First Campaign is raising funds to purchase a new pair of shoes for children identified as needing a higher level of support in East Bakersfield. Year-round, @children_first1 is finding ways to support children and families and this year we want to re-establish
our Back to School event. In doing so, we'll be identifying
50 children to provide a fresh haircut and new kicks! Help us achieve this goal by contributing to our cause (link to donate is in our bio!) and sharing this post!
