About Parent Citywide:
Janet Hurd is a local school teacher in Clark County School District working with at-risk students and low-income families. Years ago, we met Janet as she solicited food donations for needy families in Las Vegas. Once a month throughout the school year, Janet organizes food drives or more to assist local displaced families, foster children/teens, and provides a monthly basket of food for their families. During the holidays, needy families receive a Christmas tree, gifts, and a month's supply of groceries, including a holiday meal of turkey or ham, bag of potatoes or rice, canned foods, holiday desserts, milk, and other supplies. Parent Citywide seeks sponsorships or funding partners, food donations, and gifts to provide food for the turkey baskets, holiday gifts and personal items. We anticipate a greater need for assistance this year because of the economy and unemployment of families in need!
As Ivy Plus Alumni, we can support this great charity, Janet, and the needy famlies in our local community who will benefit from our support and generosity. Please consider donating your time or support this Holiday season.
