Valentines for Veterans at Kaleidescope

For our first Challenge Awaken KC has decided to bring together the creativity of the youth and create unique Valentine's Day Cards for Veterans. Kaleidescope, at Hallmark, has generously agreed to work with us to set up times for families to bring in their children and donate their remnants towards this projects. We will then deliver the cards to local VA hospitals and VFWs to spread much needed smiles to service men and women.

See Kaleidescope's Calendar &
Pick any time on Saturday Feb. 5th!


Can not wait to see you there!
