Loading up the truck (4 across and 12-15 deep) with backpacks and school supplies for delivery to Valley Restart Shelter in Hemet. Tuesday's stop will also include the truck's 8-foot bed full of food, courtesy of Stater Bros. in Hemet. After we deliver the food to VRS - it's back to the Stater Bros. for another truckload of food for delivery to Veronica's Home of Mercy in San Bernardino.
Then this Saturday, July 28, it will be the 2018 "Full Bellies, Warm Hearts" event in Hemet. The kids will receive the backpacks full of school supplies, plus there will be gift cards for clothing and shoes. Food, entertainers, a petting zoo, and lots more will be happening.
And then the following Saturday, August 4, "Full Bellies, Warm Hearts" happens all over again in San Bernardino!

Debra Johnson of the Milgard Windows & Doors manufacturing facility in Temecula has been instrumental in the acquisition of windows needed to help HomeAid Inland Empire renovate a house on the Central City Lutheran Mission campus in San Bernardino.
The project is in its final stages, and the eleven windows donated by Milgard help to ensure an energy efficient and secure living space.

Once again, Bank of America has generously granted HomeAid Inland Empire a $5000 donation. HomeAid Inland Empire Executive Director Julie Reay was at the check presentation that included Bank of America's Inland Empire Market President Alfred Arguello and Vice President, Community Relations Manager Cathy Paredes at one of their Riverside branches.
