And, a big THANK YOU to Serrano - Parker Development for providing the location for this event.

"Robyn and Chris Parker are such a gift to Hands4Hope and the Placerville Youth Center. They have been Adult Mentors to the Emergency Food Pantry Committee since the beginning and have helped to build relationships in the community not only with committee participants and agency partners but families that visit the food pantry. They bring such a positive and inviting feeling into the pantry." - Melissa Placek, Hands4Hope Education Program Coordinator


“Working with Chris and Robyn in the emergency has been amazing, they are such vital members of our team and we wouldn’t be able to do it without them!” - Jayce Kalfunski, Hands4Hope Placerville Community Engagement Ambassador

"I am much more confident and less nervous. I feel very productive with Hands4Hope and I'm so glad that I joined Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference. I've felt more confident speaking in class, I have new friends and new points of view. At home, it helps me stay productive."
