"We help children create a community service project to help someone else," said Fayer. "Being able to help others reminds these children that they are special and valuable. Community support allows us to be able to spread this kindness to so many people in the community."
For information, or to RSVP for the event, call Jennifer Nelson at 239-826-0556.
