A Word From Our Director

Happy November – the month we count our blessings and express our thanks!


We are thankful to receive funding from several local foundations including Off Center Thrift & Gift, Teichert, Make Dreams Real, DW61 Foundation, Raymus Foundation, and Bee Positive. Without the support of these locals, who are also non-profits, we would not be able to do the important work we do! It takes a village, right?


We are blessed by our strong “village” of volunteers – they make magic happen for our clients and their families. Programs like skiing, Miracle League, bowling, and soccer would not occur without their unwavering support – Thank YOU!


Coming up later this month – on November 30th – our annual showing of the latest Warren Miller film. Get your tickets and join us at the historic State Theatre for this time-honored tradition of ski thrills and spills on the big screen. We are thankful for those who show up every year in support!


Join us at Modesto On Ice for a family skate night specially for Society’s clients on December 5th from 5:30 to 7:00PM. We are most grateful to our sponsor Kelly McMurray of Morgan Stanley!


Starting to shop for Christmas? Be sure to stop by our Thrift Store at 1129 8th Street… Manager Alex Bohnet has lots of great bargains just waiting for you!


We are looking forward to seeing you at upcoming events and programs…stay tuned. Please remember the Society as you think about year-end giving – we appreciate your support!


Happy Thanksgiving,

Cathy

Loaded Potato Soup

This creamy potato soup is so easy to make and perfect for the cooler weather. In 30 minutes you'll have this bowl of hearty soup with all the toppings your heart can desire on the table after a long day at work.

RECIPE

Tissue Paper Tree

One of my favorite things about fall is watching the leaves change color. With this fun craft, the kids can recreate that experience. It's an easy craft and makes for a nice centerpiece at any dinner table.

INSTRUCTIONS

Caramel Apple Slices

These caramel apple slices are a delicious twist on a fall classic that everyone will enjoy! This is an easy treat the kids can help make and a whole lot easier to eat than your typical caramel apple.
