Loving Teens Bags
'Loving TEEN Bags'
for the Foster Kids
for the Foster Kids
New 2022 program! We started a partnership with the nonprofit "His House Children's Home" in Miami. At this moment, there are 120 teenagers living there. All were victims of violence, abandonment or some type of trauma. We will fill up duffle bags with many items, and then gift it to them. It will be a token of happiness to young people going through a hard time, during a challenging age.
The goal and the fundraised amounts include product and financial donations.
His House Children's Home
The Covid19 Pandemic, increased the violence against children & youth. Many teens ended up in institutions like "His House", most of them empty handed.
"Volunteers of Love"
need your help to give them a GIFT.
Help us to create duffle bags with many items in it, by the beginning of the school year. They will receive these new gifts to start a new year and a new life.
Please, WATCH the video to understand
these teenager's daily struggles.

Sunday, August 13th, 2022 (To be confirmed)
We are happy to finally be together in 2022. The PACKING DAY is the hands-on part of our work. It will make us feel the love that surrounds this event.
Charity is a labor of love. We receive double blessings in proportion to the amount of effort, dedication, and discipline that we put on it. Even if we cannot see these blessing, they will happen to you.
Packing:
All products will be on an assembly line to facilitate packing.
Each bag will have one of the items (except the bathing kit - 2pcs)
Complete a bag, bring it to the completed zone, then restart again.
In the end, the whole group will take a picture together.
We close it with a thankful prayer, for the opportunity to help.

"His House" only receives donations from Mon-Fri (Volunteers will be needed for the drop-off (During the last week of August, 2022. (20000 N.W. 47th Avenue, Hector Building No. 2, Miami Gardens, FL 33055)
Unfortunately, the law does not permit that we meet the teens, but we hope to see a picture of some of them using it.
