Festivals, birthdays, anniversaries, good news – there’s always something to celebrate! The children not only enjoy these gatherings of their SOFKIN family, they play an active part in planning the activities.

There is a monthly party for all the children whose birthday is in that month. There’s always something to celebrate!
Wrapping Up the Year with a Gala Luncheon

Thank you to all of the event sponsors: PamTen, PNC Bank, CCI Compass, and Wells Fargo. And a special thank you to all that attended and helped bring smiles, hopes, and helped make dreams come true for the children of SOFKIN.
The 2019 event is already in the planning stages and promises to be even more exciting that last year.
Looking to 2019
This year is moving quickly, as are the children! Each month holds new adventures, as well as the standards of school, self discipline, and home responsibilities. They take everything in stride and strive to do their best. There are also exciting plans in the works for this coming year. We’ll let you know as soon as they develop and you can always find out more at our blog.
The one thing that is consistent throughout the years is the appreciation everyone at SOFKIN has for those who support the children. Without the help of so many kind spirits, we wouldn’t be able to accomplish our goal of giving them the best possible home we can.
