Club Signing Day

Today was a great success with the students that showed interested and joined Without A Roof.  We have many great activities planned throughout the year and are excited to get to work. Our first meeting will be held on October 3rd, and we will start to coordinate plans for our first upcoming event. We hope that the smoldering look on our faces actually encouraged others to get involved!?! 

Back To School

We had a great service project this summer where we helped with funding, collecting and making of 36 blankets. We also collected back to school supplies and donated all of this to refugees in the Sacramento Area. This was a part of the Folsom Stake Youth Conference where there were many happy and willing hands at work. Thank you for the donations and all of the hard work!

Warm and Fuzzy Drive

This was our third annual Warm and Fuzzy Drive with Natoma Station Elementary where we donate to the students and familes at Cordova Meadows Elementary. Each year we are thrilled to work with such an amazing schools and staff. Thank you for supporting Without A Roof students in service and for all the wonderful donations.

Passing The Torch

I cannot express how much joy I have received by serving others through Without A Roof. I have loved the knowledge and opportunity I have gained through creating, organizing and leading this club. I am most grateful for the many wonderful refugees, leaders, teachers and students I have worked with along the way. As I am now heading off to college, I will keep involved with this charity, but will be passing the leadership role on to a new wonderful group of leaders.

Happy And Helping Hands

“Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

On January 22nd, 2018 the Without a Roof club member had the opportunity to set up an apartment for a family of eight, (5 boys) from Afghanistan. With the donations received from club members, local churches, and other generous volunteers, we were able to furnish the 2-bedroom apartment. Us volunteers filled the apartment with pots & pans, dishes, toiletries, and linens! We even built a dining room table and set up a bed for each member of the family. It was a very humbling and rewarding experience to help this family start from scratch and giving what we can to help.

Turning The Pages To Our Own Ending

"You can find magic wherever you look. Sit back and relax, all you need is a book" 
- Dr. Seuss

We would love to personally share our appreciation to Marina Village Middle School and their National Honor Society for putting on this drive together at their school. When added with a reward of a doughnut party, the books kept coming in! We were astonished when we realized that we had to find a space in our car for over 2,000 books. 

Lake Forest followed their lead the following week, and today we collected over 800 more. We are so grateful for such a wonderful community of teachers, parents, students who took the time to serve others in need by donating something that empowers minds and helps cultivate imagination. 

These books will be used as a part of a Literacy Program Initiative at Cordova Meadows Elementary School who have over ninety students that are refugees.
