Team Up With Kids!

May 10, 2011

We believe that kids can improve a community and ultimately the world. Especially with the help of Team Kids, which is providing children the tools to make a difference in their schools, communities and preparing future generations to become caring, resourceful and responsible adults. And now it’s celebrating its tenth year of providing organized free and innovative programs in schools that give students the opportunity raise funds for local charities.

More than 21,000 students have completed the month-long Team Kids Challenge, raising and donating more than $200,000 to youth-serving nonprofits, including those that serve homelessness, the hungry and the environment. Recently they’re raised thousands for Japan Relief through The American Red Cross.

Team Kids is inviting you to join them on Sunday from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Imagine Event at Il Fornaio restaurant in Irvine. It’s a fun-filled family event that celebrates Team Kids' successes with award-winning cuisine, entertainment and a kids’ carnival. There will be a delicious buffet lunch and silent auction.

Tickets cost $50 for adults, $10 for teens, free for kids 12 and under. Special honorees include Kelly Smith, founder of Center for Living Peace and Captain Stephen McHale, Orange County Fire Authority Fire Captain and founding Team Kids president.

Il Fornaio Restaurant is at Lakeshore Towers, 18051 Von Karman, Irvine. For more information, call 949.861.4887 and to purchase tickets, go here.

 

The Studio.
