We love Kathy and all her hard work she does as a volunteer. She made the local paper...check it out!http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/dec/20/theres-good-reason-woman-works-nine-jobs/

Project Elevate had it's annual Christmas party. It was a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday surrounded by caring people. Some of the youth were able to spend the evening with their brothers & sisters.

They had a great time decorating the ginger bread houses.

The youth love Dario and can feel his genuine love and hope he has for them.

There have been some special friendships made.

We had a white elephant gift exchange.

Ashley was thrilled to get these horse reins =)

Lot's of laughs!

What could Chuck be soooo thrilled about?

A SNOWMAN CLOCK!!!

Chuck threw a chain on the snowman clock and in an instant he was Flava Flav!

Decorating the Ronald McDonald house for Christmas

Project Elevate had a wonderful opportunity to give some service to the community. Volunteers, as well as past and present Project Elevate youth, met at the Ronald McDonald House to decorate for Christmas. It was a wonderful way for the youth to "pay it forward." They gave the best part of themselves by serving and helped bring the Christmas spirit to those living at the Ronald McDonald House this Christmas.

The youth felt so good helping others. One of the youth driving home with Heather said "I feel so good about this." Donnie said "My favorite part was decorating the lunch bags! Knowing that the bags I created will put a smile on someone else's face, brings one to mine! I love it! I can't wait to go back again."
