Celebrating Community Partners: Kiwanis San Diego, US Bank and Neurelis

Celebrating Community Partners: Kiwanis San Diego, US Bank and Neurelis

Remember moving into your first home? Did your parents hook you up with some furniture? Did you have friends to lend their muscles and their trucks on moving day? For a lot of young people transitioning out of foster care, Just in Time is that parent and that friend!

And to get the job done, we rely on the help of community members like Kiwanis of San Diego and U.S. Bank!

It really does take a small army to ensure that our Just in Time participants get the help they need choosing essential items for their homes and help hauling those couches, tables, bedroom sets and more up to their apartments.

Thank you Kiwanis San Diego, U.S. Bank and all the volunteers who lend their time and talent to My First Home service.

Interested in Group Volunteer Opportunities with Just in Time?

Email JIT Volunteer Services Manager, Sophia Prieto Guzman: Sophia@jitfosteryouth.org

We are so grateful for neuroscience based company Neurelis for coming together to ensure that Just in Time participants have access to easy to prepare food! Their recent donation of 145 individual food items will be distributed to youth experiencing food insecurity within our community.

We are also grateful to Life Science Cares for connecting us to this amazing community partner!

Help Us Feed Our Most Vulnerable Participants!

We are actively seeking ready-made-food and hygiene items to support our most vulnerable youth.

What are ready made food items? Food that can be made using hot water or a microwave; that do not need to be refrigerated; and do not require a lot of cookware.

If you have items you would like to donate, we are here to receive them every Friday from 10am to 12pm at our My First Home Distribution Center located at: 4561 Mission Gorge Pl, Suite G, San Diego, CA 92120.
