Giving Trees

You can make Christmas a little brighter for a homeless family this year! Vision House giving trees are a great way to rally your co-workers, family, friends, and church family around a great cause. Sponsoring a giving tree is easy! Here’s how it works:

1. Contact Kristi Slattery at 425.228.6356 or kristis@vision-house.org and let her know you would like to sponsor a tree.

2. Kristi will arrange to have a giving tree delivered to your office or church towards the end of November.

3. People will take tags off the tree that describe a Vision House child or mom and their Christmas wish. They will then buy a gift card or give a financial gift and return it to the box under the tree.

4. Kristi will coordinate pick-up of the trees and gift cards just before Christmas.

5. Gift cards are provided to Vision House families to purchase specific items as needed and are also used throughout the year to support the children and mothers in our care. Trees will be claimed quickly, so call today to reserve yours!

Staff Meetings

Parents:

Our staff meetings have been changed to the 3rd Wednesday of every month. This means on October 21st, November 18th and December 16th, we will be closing at 5:30 p.m. The same late charges will apply, with the exception that on those days are closing time is 5:30 p.m. Please mark your calendars. I will send out reminders on the Tuesday before the meeting and on Wednesday the day of the meeting. I will do this through twitter, signage will be posted on the door and you will have a message when you sign in and out your child.

I am confident that is plenty of reminders, so no excuses if you pick up your child after 5:30 on staff meeting days and are charged a late fee.

Thanks for your attention,
