I found the Centro de la Familia, a Headstart program for the children of migrant farm workers, almost four years ago.
One of my friends, a preschool teacher at the school, reached out asking for help with some very basic needs at her school.
Over the years 
with the help of my friends, family and community in Herriman, we’ve provided a lot of much needed assistance to families at the school. The project has evolved into what I call Operation Undies.
I named it this because one of the main things
I collect for this school is new packages of socks and underwear since there is a critical need for it amongst the students there.
Collecting undies is ALL we are doing for the school this year.
According to the teachers, students come to school without socks because they simply don’t have any. Additionally, there are many kids who wear hand-me-down underwear that are far too big and/or are full of holes.
I believe every child should have socks to wear especially in winter and underwear that fits and functions properly. Most of us can’t imagine a world where we couldn’t outfit our kids in socks and underwear. 
Here’s your chance to help some kids this Christmas season. We’re collecting new packages of socks and underwear in sizes 2T to 6. Please help if you can.
I’ll be taking donations until Dec 15th at my house or at a drop box located inside Reviv Medical Spa in Herriman (behind Arctic Circle). If you have any questions comment below or feel free to contact me here.
