Here at CRH, the holidays are truly the most wonderful time of
the year. This year, as we continue to wear our masks and
practice social distancing, the holidays looked a bit different
than usual.
Our donation station shifted from our front lobby to our parking
lot, and our Angel Tree transformed into an online Wish List of
gifts; but that didn’t stop you! Thanks to
your flexibility, our kids will experience a holiday season to
remember.
Until we are able to be together in person, please take a virtual
walk through our CRH campus and explore the different spaces and
programs here at the Receiving Home.
Thanks to Friends of Folsom, The Rotary Club of Sacramento
and other community members, our campus got a splash of color!
Watch the video above to see how everything came
together.
Just a couple of weeks ago, Sabrina Silva was at an event in
Folsom, where an artist came out to paint a couple of signs for
the Childrens Receiving Home of Sacramento. Today she returns for
the big ribbon cutting and reveal!
Each year on the first Thursday in May, the Sacramento
region comes together to support organizations that make our
community stronger. The Big Day of Giving is a 24-hour,
community-wide fundraising movement, organized by the Sacramento Region
Community Foundation.
During this year’s Big Day of Giving, nonprofits in the
Sacramento region raised a record-breaking $13.3 million, and
donors invested $80,210 of that in the youth served by the
Children’s Receiving Home!
Each month our Activities Team engages one of our staff who has a
“hidden” talent – to teach and inspire our youth. One of our
residential counselors taught the kids coping tools through
art via a friendly dorm-to-dorm competition!
CRH has been evaluated by Charity Navigator through their
revolutionary Encompass Rating System and received a 100 out of
100 rating!
The Encompass Rating System is a comprehensive evaluation tool
that analyzes nonprofit performance based on four key indicators.
Charity Navigator’s third-party accreditation validates our
organization’s operational excellence.
