Project Description Country: USA Location: Justin, TX Total Budget: $700 Area of Focus: Community economic development Activity Type: Community Development: General Summary: In collaboration with LifeWorks Community, Champions Rotary will assemble care packages for college aged students that a part of the PUSH program at University of North Texas. This project is two fold: 1)Champions Rotary will help assemble care packages with LifeWorks Community (an adult care center for mentally handicapped individuals with programs and activities centered around self care objectives, pre-vocational/communication objectives, community awareness and social skills objectives and many more). This program helps reinforce processes and sorting based on like products. Assembly will take place on November 9th, 2023 at the Life Works Community offices and will assemble 50 care packages. These care packages will be to the benefit of PUSH program members, foster care graduates who are currently enrolled at University of North Texas. After foster care, these young adults often lose some of the support system they are afforded while in foster care. These care packages reinforce that they are still cared for and thought of, especially during midterms and holiday season.
