VIFCC has two special programs:
The August Back-to-School Program provides uniforms, new shoes,
personal-care items, back packs and school supplies for children. In the recent
years, The Dater Foundation has sponsored this program and due to their help, we
have been able to help almost 800 school age children start school with a
healthy attitude.
We always need the following items in able to complete this
program:
- Markers - washable, 8-10 count (no crayons, please)
- folders
- rulers
- glue sticks
- 1" binders
- personal hygiene items ( toothpaste, shampoo, soap, deodorant)
- uniforms (any size)
- Financial donations to enable us to purchase additional uniforms, shoes,
back-packs, etc
The Christmas programs conducted by VIFCC provide food
baskets, clothing and toys to over 480 families representing over 1000 children.
Congregations contribute to these programs via their own "sharing tree"
donations.
We have a waiting list of clients who would like to be included
in these programs and we're limited only by the funding we have available.
We always need the following items in able to complete this
program:
