🚗 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀.

Our Meals on Wheels volunteers drive across the county to reach seniors who depend on daily meals and wellness checks. Gas costs add up quickly—and your support keeps those wheels turning.

If you’re able, please consider a donation toward fuel assistance. ⛽

Your kindness keeps our drivers moving and our seniors nourished.

With California's expansion of Transitional Kindergarten (TK), parents have more early learning options than ever. But not every program offers the same experience, and finding the right fit for your child and family matters.

🌟 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹-𝗗𝗮𝘆, 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹-𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 — Unlike shorter-day programs, CANV Kids provides a consistent schedule that helps working parents balance childcare and their jobs.
🌟 𝗔𝗴𝗲-𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 — Children ages 18 months through pre-K learn in environments designed for their developmental stages, with activities and peers appropriate for their age.
🌟 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗲 — From toilet training to growing independence, our caring team works alongside parents to help children develop important life skills.
🌟 𝗔 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 — Through play, exploration, and individual encouragement, children develop confidence, social skills, and kindergarten readiness.
