Paint for Kids

On December 27, 2008 72 parents, Board members, staff and volunteers completed painting projects at four Los Angeles Urban League Head Start Child Development Centers (Lew Sand Weltor, Astro Village, McCall and Burlington). As a result of the contribution from this event the Head Start program saved and estimated $15,000.00.
