Napa County Brings Child Support "Home"

On August 6, Napa County DCSS held its fifth annual CSAM event in partnership with Home Depot. The event, held annually on the first weekend in August, provides kids the opportunity to don their kid-sized aprons provided by Home Depot and open their imaginations and get their hands dirty with creative projects.

This year, the kids made small wooden skateboards with wheels while others made pencil boxes for the upcoming school year, all materials were provided by Home Depot for the event.

Napa County DCSS provided the kids with raffle tickets for two lucky winners to receive fully-stocked backpacks just in time for the new school year.

“It’s a very familial event that brings together a lot of important aspects for children,” said Karin Castaneda, Staff Services Manager at Napa County DCSS. “I really thank our staff who enthusiastically worked the Saturday event.”

In addition to the Home Depot event, Napa County DCSS made an appearance at the National Night Out on August 2nd, Latino Outreach event in partnership with Univision as well as a CSAM Community Fair on August 6th.
