Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmailby feather

In case you hadn’t noticed, summer vacation is nearly over! It’s time for kids to get ready to go back to school. Family First Pregnancy Care Center and Family Diaper Bank is holding their annual School Supply Drive during the month of August. For many families, purchasing the pencils, notebooks, paper, crayons, rulers, markers, backpacks, and other school supplies for their children creates a major financial problem. Next time you go to the store, will you help by picking up some extra items and donating them to the School Supply Drive? Items can be brought to the Family First Pregnancy Center at 1575 W. American Ave, Oracle on Monday, Wednesday or Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. The school supplies will be donated to schools in Oracle. Any cash or check donations should be made out to Family First and will be receipted for School Supplies.

Story Time is on Wednesday mornings from 10 to 11 a.m. Story Time is for moms (or grandmas, dads, babysitters, etc) and tots 2-4 years old. Stories, crafts, snacks and fun fill up the hour. Come and join us every Wednesday.

For more information on our programs, call us at 520-896-9545, go to our website at www.familyfirstpcc.org, or stop by our center at 1575 W. American Ave. We are open on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
