Family Involvement Fund

This cause has been created to fundraise to bring more families to our conference in June 2010. Donations may be made to the general fund or you may sponsor a specific family with your donation (must be noted on check or paypal). If you need a worthy tax deduction for 2009 or 2010, The Family Involvement Fund for PKS Kids would love your support in bringing more families together to share and educate!

It is soooo much better than the interin chair we had whilst we waited for this one. It is a lot lower so Sarah and Hannah can now see eye-to-eye. They love it at her Kinder and she is showing more interest in interactin with the other 4 year olds (mainstream).
