Creating for Care...For the past 6 years, DWE has been part of an after-school Service Learning Organization for 4th and 5th grade students called Creating for Care (CFC). CFC is a 501c3 non-profit organization that has raised over $70,000 for the Periwinkle Foundation providing camps and unique activities for children with pediatric cancer. This year CFC is open to ALL 4th and 5th graders from local elementary and private schools as well as homeschool students. Also CFC will be meeting once a month off campus at Strawbridge UMC starting January 31st. Please see CFC’s Facebook site at link https://www.facebook.com/creatingforcare7 for kick-off details. Contact Robin Robinson at creatingforcare@gmail.com with any questions. This is a wonderful volunteer opportunity that changes children’s lives, both the ones serving and those they serve!
