SAN JOSE, Calif. - Sept. 16, 2015 - PRLog -- Family Volunteer Day is a day of service that celebrates the power of families who work together to support their neighborhoods, communities and the world. Each year, thousands of families use the day to teach children valuable, real-life lessons about compassion and caring. Volunteering also can be a great way for kids and adults to develop skills, learn more about their community and make friends.

There are lots of easy and fun ways to get involved no matter how much time you have.  From small acts of kindness like donating books or toys to enlisting your family to take part in a community service project, doing good with your family is easy and the list of possible activities is endless.

PARTI PROGRAM:

The P.A.R.T.I. (Positive Alternative Recreation Teambuilding Impact) Program believes that our children are our community’s greatest assets. Every day we work to change the lives of youth who suffer from bullying, depression, violent lifestyles, unhealthy relationships and unstable families. We provide support activities for many low-income and underrepresented youth who otherwise never receive an opportunity to be heard or get placed in leadership roles in their school. PARTI Program believes leadership and service should be the common expectation and experience of all young people.

Established in 2000, the P.A.R.T.I. Program is a non-partisan, non-sectarian 501(c)(3), non-profit organization with the primary mission of enhancing youth critical thinking skills.

PARTI Program serves over 5,000 high-risk, impacted and intentional youth in Santa Clara County, Alameda County and Los Angeles County. Our main programs are: High Impact, cultural arts (Fusion), PARTI Health, Leadership Development and Mentorship Program.
