Happy Holidays from Serendipity Center

,

Serendipity Center extends our sincere gratitude to all those who donated time, money, and energy to making this holiday season a joyful and memorable one for Serendipity’s students and their families.

As a way of closing out the fall semester and 2014, Serendipity held our annual Holiday Celebration to distribute donated gifts to students before they left for winter break. Gifts were donated by NIKE, the employees of CapitalOne, and patrons of Glendoveer Golf Course. The Central East Portland Rotary and St. Joseph the Worker’s Peace and Justice Committee  provided 17 families with groceries to help during winter break. We were also able to provide 28 families with $100 Fred Meyer gift cards due to donations from individuals and organizations such as Brown & Brown NW, Metro West Women’s Club, and OPNW.

It is this type of leadership and generosity from our community partners and our Board of Directors that has helped make 2014 a year of tremendous growth for Serendipity Center. We would like to say “Thank You” to all those who supported Serendipity in 2013-2014, we wish you all the best in 2015!
