About the organizations: Town and Gown is partnering with Children's Fund to add a personal touch to support programs for vulnerable youth in San Bernardino County. Created as a way to reach abused, neglected, and disadvantaged youth who are in unique circumstances and have limited opportunities for connection, the comfort quilt program adds a sense of security, ownership, and a reminder that someone believes in them. Youth have shared that it helped recreate their sense of hope and value again. Learn more
