This holiday season, we are grateful to be sponsoring a family through the Breathing Room Foundation Holiday Program. We look forward to dropping the gifts off to a wonderful family of three.
Several of our members helped out with the Rotary Club of Glenside-Abington‘s Thanksgiving food drive, packing and delivering 75 Thanksgiving meals for families in Cheltenham School District.
In the month of November, our Book Train collected 60 books, which puts at us over 1,000 for the fiscal year so far! We also established a new Book Box at Jenkintown Day Nursery, where parents can browse and take home books to encourage a life-long love of reading.
We hosted many wonderful organizations this last month through our weekly Speaker Series including Briar Bush Nature Center, Worthwhile and Valley Youth House.
SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAMS
The Abington Aktion Club made cards for service members in celebration of Thanksgiving. They also held their yearly Banquet of Thanks, a celebration of the Aktion Club’s year of service, new member induction, award presentations and traditional candle lighting. Kiwanis Governor Barbara Carter joined as their keynote speaker for the evening.
The Abington Senior High School Key Club raised $1,000 for Breast Cancer and donated it to Living Beyond Breast Cancer, Unite for Her and Breathing Room Foundation.

Beds for Kids program
Many social service agencies in the Philadelphia area help low-income families obtain housing, but few can help families turn their housing into functional homes. As a result, children are forced to sleep on the floor, on sofas, or crowded into bed with several family members. Sleeping arrangements such as these often lead to poor sleep, which goes hand-in-hand with poor health and poor school performance.
OHAAT’s Beds for Kids program delivers beds, bedding, and tools that encourage healthy bedtime habits directly to the homes of children in need. With beds of their very own, children can get the quality and sufficient sleep they need to thrive.
Come out and join us as Kate Fay will educate us on this wonderful program
