Cotton candy, raffle prizes and a bouncy box, added to
the festive air of the Neighborhood Family Center’s 7th
Annual “Green” Block Party. Kids and adults were at the
center to partake in food, games and the limbo.
Kids fingerprinting and ID pictures done by the
Pinellas County, marriage and family counseling, as well
as other community health issues including information
about HIV/AIDS testing and prevention were there to
offer support to the community. Sparky the fire dog and
a live DJ were also on the menu.

8th ANNUAL BACK-TO-SCHOOL
FUNDRAISER
Our Back-to-School Fundraiser raises monies to provide the
necessary supplies students need to start the school
year. Many children start school without the basic
tools that are essential to their success. Local
organizations, schools, community members and businesses
join forces each year to ensure students have the tools
they need to be successful in school.
