354 Kindergarten students within Lake Havasu City have kicked off the Happy Healthy Smiles program at 6 area schools. A dental hygienist has provided an oral health lesson using the smile kits and pink disclosure tablets. The Smile Kits were funded by Delta Dental Foundation of Arizona, La Paz Mohave Oral Health Coalition and the Kids Bright & Healthy program by River Cities United Way. Each Smile Kit includes a toothbrush, tooth paste, dental floss, tooth brush cover, pencil, and Dr. Seuss'  "The Tooth Book".  The classrooms will maintain brushing their teeth during the two-week period while learning through provided oral health curriculum.

Northern Arizona University's Civic Service Institute inspires people of all ages throughout Arizona to volunteer and connects them with service opportunities to make positive impacts in our communities. Through high-impact, diverse, and engaging volunteer roles which meet critical community needs, volunteers give their time and talent to a variety of issue areas. All Senior Corps volunteers are 55 years or older and are committed to helping improve their local communities in an impactful and measurable way. 

If you are interested in serving please contact Nancy Rutherford at 928.715.2200 for the FGP or SCP Program and Eve Hanna for RSVP at 928.220.5177.

River Cities United Way is an excellent partner in supporting the work of CSI's Senior Corps Programs. The funding we receive allows us to provide mileage reimbursement to our volunteers to ensure they can volunteer at no expense to themselves, recognition for their tremendous dedication, and support with meeting the match of our federal grants.

River Cities United Way has been awarded $500 by Staples Foundation, the private charitable arm of Staples, Inc. through a program called 2 Million & Change that allows Staples associates around the globe to direct donations in the amount of about $2 million each year.

The program, created in 2012, encourages local community engagement by awarding larger grants to organizations where associates are highly engaged in volunteering or fundraising -- up to $25,000 per organization.

In 2015, associates globally directed more than $2.5 million of Staples Foundation grants to 875 non-profit organizations.

"For 30 years, Staples associates have been making a difference in their communities around the world." said Regis Mulot, executive vice president, human resources, Staples, Inc., "We're thrilled that the 2 Million & Change program lets our associates make an even greater impact on the organizations they are passionate about."

 

Since 2007 FamilyWize and River Cities United Way have partnered to help over 24,000 people in our coverage area (Mohave and La Paz Counties, Needles California and Laughlin Nevada) save over $2 Million on the prescription medications they need.  This effort has helped improve the health and financial stability of individuals in our community.
