PAMA will collect items for homeless kits during December. Look for the box in the lobby if you would like to donate.

If you don’t have time to shop, monetary donations are also always welcome. We will do the shopping for you. Please drop off any cash donations at the front desk.

Provide items in TRAVEL SIZES, so they can fit in a gallon size Ziploc bag.

Contact Lanette Seifert if you have any questions.

Ages 3 to 7

Our Little Ninjas Program is a detailed curriculum that focuses on improving preschool-age children’s basic motor and listening skills. These skills will help them enter society with a more confident and enthusiastic outlook. They will become better students at school, better listeners at home and more ambitious towards the future. We believe the time between the ages of 3 and 7 are the most important years of a child’s development. Our program will enhance positive development in a fun and motivating way.
