Lakewood United announcement.
Lakewood United: Caring for Kids: Community Support for Our Youth. The public is invited to join Lakewood United on Thursday, May 18 at 6:00 pm at Pierce College, Fort Steilacoom Campus, Olympic Bldg., Room 102; Time 6:00 pm to hear guest speaker Diane Formoso. She is Founder/Director of Caring for Kids for 48 years.
Lakewood United continues its focus on the youth in our community. If you seek to receive an accurate account of what types of support our youth need, please join us. Listen to those who have “boots on the ground”. Caring for Kids began years ago with a little clothing bank in the back of the old Lakeview Elementary School in Lakewood, WA. Today, 13 out of every 20 students in the Clover Park School District live at or below the poverty level. Formoso, along with dedicated volunteers and generous donors, make a huge contribution to the well-being of the children in our community. What more is needed? How might we enhance the work already being done? Join us and be a part of the discussion.
