Brighten a Child's Day!

Activity Kits are gallon sized re-sealable bags containing art supplies, activity books, games and reading material. We give each child at Casa Alitas a kit to enjoy while they are at our shelter and during their upcoming travel.

​

You can build kits and donate them! This is a wonderful project for a school class, a church group, a family or anyone who loves children.

 

Simply purchase supplies, assemble kits, then contact us to arrange for drop off.
