Who
we are: Kids of all ages collaborate with adult volunteers and local businesses to facilitate their service projects. Problem solving and management skills are cultivated as the youth lead the project and event planning. Driven by their vision and desire to improve their environments, itscool2care kids inspire and connect their community in a variety of ways. To date itscool2care has donated to Toys for Tots, End Hunger, Houston Area Women's Center, Trees for Houston, and has an ongoing collaboration with Friends for Life Animal Shelter and Sanctuary. We will soon be operating out of Friends for Life Compassion in Action Center in their new facility on 19th street in the Houston Heights. What's Next: Itscool2care kids are currently planning an awareness event for Earth Day 09. The youth identified a need for a collection of vegetarian recipes and nutrition advice for the growing number of kids reducing or eliminating their meat consumption for the benefit of animal and environmental welfare. The cookbook will be sold during a festival with restaurant vendors, themed artwork, and presentations by Friends for Life, itscool2care and ENVI (environments need vast improvement) youth project leaders. The project leaders have job descriptions and tasks for every level of participation, from one hour one time, to ongoing commitments of 2-3 hours a week. Contact us at itscool2care@yahoo.com, we always need more support improving and connecting our community!
