    This festive evening will be held Thursday April 14, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at GrandStay’s La Grand Event Center in Apple Valley. Feast on delicious appetizers and enjoy the cash bar while you see all the new spring colors and styles, and perhaps even find the perfect gift for mom in time for Mother’s Day. 

    What a great reason to have a girl’s night out! “This night out on the town accomplishes so much. It first and foremost helps us to communicate about the positive power of mentoring and the need here in our community.  The funds raised will assist Kids ‘n Kinship in providing mentors for the 70 youth who are waiting for a caring adult to share their time with.  Those involved in this event, the Chicks For A Cause organization, the vendors, the boutiques, are all small local groups who together each benefit from partnering for this exciting night of socializing, shopping and learning more about Kids ‘n Kinship.”  said Jan Belmore, director of Kids ‘n Kinship.

    About Kids ‘n Kinship

    Kids 'n Kinship is a non-profit organization that matches children who have a need for an additional supportive relationship with carefully screened adult volunteers.  Once a match has been made, volunteers spend 1-4 hours per week with the child.  Typical activities might include hanging out together, playing games, and attending sporting events, sharing hobbies, cooking, taking walks or going to the movies.  Volunteers make a one-year commitment to the program.  These relationships often grow into life-long friendships.  www.kidsnkinship.org
