Life was a little brighter today with the sharing of joy and neighborly love. Volunteers, Santa and his wife handed out toys and food to those who needed a little cheer. Thank you to all who support the efforts and feel free to come join us anytime you'd like. Merry Christmas for all of us at Vegas Connected. Our programs would not be serving our community if it weren't for the blessings from all of you. #PokerGives#VegasStreetHearts

August 2020 – Back to School Supply Distribution – Vegas Youth Network
Pallets of School Supplies Ready for Distribution
Even during the trying times of the Covid Pandemic, we have had to adapt to a new way of life. Our children are no different. Schools have been impacted significantly with virtual classroom learning, some in classrooms others at home. Our goal here at Vegas Connected through our Vegas Youth Network program is to continue to supply school kids with the tools they need to succeed.
Through your generous support and dedication to the kids in our community, we were able to supply 9,600 backpacks and school supplies to area Title 1 Schools. We appreciate you and wish these students the best as they make the adjustments to continue their education in the 2020-21 school year.
