December:
After a Holiday breakfast at the Casa Garden Restaurant – a long time tradition at the Sacramento Children’s Home – the children of our residential treatment program opened their presents the Friday before Christmas. With your help, we were able to fulfill most, if not all their wishes! And we were able to provide gifts for the babies, children and families in our Crisis Nurseries and Family Resource Centers/Birth & Beyond programs – so, they could have joyful Holidays as well. On behalf of the children and families we serve and who benefited from the generosity of the Sacramento region, we would like to thank everyone who participated in the 2007 Holiday program! Special thanks to our Giving Tree sites for their ongoing support.

The Sacramento Children's Home is celebrating its 140th anniversary this year. In July, a Reunion Reception was held at the Casa Garden Restaurant and meeting center. The Los Ninos Service League sponsored the event. Residents and staff from years ago attended. We had folks come as far away as Montana and Colorado. Some of the past residents lived at the Home in the twenties and thirties. You are welcome to check out these photos to look back on and reminisce.
