Home Activity Kits – Community Chest
In August, the Silver State Pioneers donated 52 home activity kits to Community Chest in Virginia City for their youth and family programs in Storey and Lyon counties. These kits for children were filled with activity books, colored pencils, puzzles, bubbles and many other fun items. Special thanks to Jackie Boyden, Life Member rep, for leading this project! Over 20 volunteers participated mainly our Life Members with more than 100 volunteer hours! Community Chest greatly appreciates these kits for the many youth who are at home during this time of COVID-19.
Christmas in July 2020
The 2nd Annual Christmas in July with the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office was held on 7/25. Many thankful families came out to this event with drive through or walk up stations. Lunch was provided to children and adults from Firehouse Subs with other goodies that included PPE and care kits. AT&T Pioneers provided hundreds of backpacks and school supplies. Kids were also excited to meet Santa and Sheriff Balaam!
