Easter Baskets for the Phoenix Children’s Project
April 2012
Each and every DV bunny hopped right in and filled an Easter Basket for the Phoenix Children’s Project. Employees chose a child and filled their baskets with bubbles, puzzles, crayons and coloring books, candy, games and gift cards!
Phoenix Children's Project is dedicated to improving the lives of children living in poverty in Phoenix, Arizona. Their goal is to help under-privileged children become healthy, self-reliant adults. They help feed and clothe them, and teach them how to help themselves so they can create better lives for themselves as adults and improve the community. They focus on providing assistance to children living below poverty level in the Metro Phoenix area. Most of these children live in government housing and come from households with a total annual income of less than $9,000. They are well loved and happy children.
With the help of many volunteers, the Phoenix Children’s Easter Program provided over 150 needy children with an Easter Basket.
