AOR Chapter Birthday Club To Visit Children's Shelter


The AOR chapter of the Birthday Club has scheduled it's visit to the Florida Keys Children's Shelter December 6th at 10am. During the visit the children will make their donations and suggest ways in which the residents of the shelter use the money. In the past, the children have asked the money be used "for something fun".
The club will be meeting with Kathy Teull CEO, and Janey Miller CDO from the shelter. The children always have many questions about the shelter, and they are fielded very patiently and gently by the two ladies. Parents are encouraged to attend. It promises to be a very rewarding experience for all.

Key Largo School Embraces The Birthday Club

On September 26th , two students from the Key Largo School along with their moms and one of the founders of the Birthday Club, an Academy at Ocean Reef student, met with the principal of KLS. The purpose of the meeting was to ask permission to start their own Birthday Club.



The principal thought it was a great idea and said yes. The official sign ups were to begin today October 9, however 37 students have already committed! It appears that the response will be overwhelming. KLS parents have a lot to be proud of. Congratulations to all involved!
