City Heights CDC’s annual turkey distribution for City Heights residents was successful! Seeing our team and community exchange smiles and gratitude, as we embark upon the holiday season, is truly heart-warming.

These grocery gift cards help with higher costs during the holidays and are a helpful boost to food security in our community while allowing residents to pick and choose their preferred holiday foods.

One thing that has totally caught me off guard was how much I can relate with the residents I work with! For example, when I do after-school programming with the kids at Hollywood Palms, I often see myself in them.

According to Vision to Learn, more than 2 million children in the U.S. do not have the glasses they need to see the board, read a book, or participate in class and they're working to meet that need.

Thanks to all who worked to make this a success, and special thanks to all the mamas who help hold the City Heights community together—we see and celebrate you!
