Our Kids Club students made beautiful art during October’s Art at Your Fingertips session! Thank you to the or bringing this educational, creative experience to our students.

The experienced volunteer docents teach art history and skills to students across the South Bay, and Richstone has been fortunate to be a part of their community for many years. AAYF aims to bring accessible, affordable fun to elementary school-aged children.

This month’s class was inspired by Alma Thomas, who was an African-American artist in Washington, DC and the first African-American woman to be included in the White House’s permanent art collection. Thomas expressed emotion through color and her use of small, repeated brush strokes evoked rhythm and harmony.

Our students were beautifully inspired by Thomas’s work and created their own pieces of colorful, exciting art for them to hang at home! We are so proud of our students for learning new things and expressing their creativity. We are grateful for community partners like the PV Art Center and their skilled, kind volunteers for their support.

Happy Halloween! We hosted our annual Halloween Party, and celebrated with fun games and activities. 👻🐈‍⬛

Our families enjoyed pumpkin painting, nail art, face painting, and more! We are grateful to our volunteers who helped make this day possible. 🎃🎨🖌️ Everyone came in their fun costumes, even our volunteers.

Our Halloween Party is one of the most fun days of the year, and we could not do it without the support of partner organizations such as Blue Shield California and National Charity League’s Manhattan/Hermosa, Pier, and South Bay chapters. ♥️

Our Richstone families made blankets during our October Partners in Philanthropy program. Founded in 2014 by Cheryl Shojinaga and Theresa Dawson, Partners in Philanthropy is intended to provide Richstone families an opportunity to participate in community service. At each program, a community partner shares about their work and engages the families in projects for their organization.

Families learn new skills, connect with one another, and give back to their community. Cheryl and Theresa hope that participants feel empowered to make a difference alongside their family.

This month, PIP was joined by Jean Petrillo from RDH Children’s Dental Health Clinic, whose mission is to provide oral health education for disadvantaged children. They offer premier training in education and dentistry and hope that all children grow up with healthy, confident smiles. Jean shared helpful information about CDHC and oral hygiene before helping with blanket making.

Thank you to Cheryl, Theresa, and Jean for an amazing PIP session! ❤️

OUR HISTORY

The Richstone Family Center was incorporated as a non-profit social services agency in 1974. In 1977, the State of California awarded Richstone a grant as one of the first of 6 child abuse treatment and prevention programs in the state. With this grant Richstone Center was established as a comprehensive agency providing services to approximately 70 families a year. In 1980, Richstone was recognized as a neighborhood family center by ICAN (Los Angeles County Inter-agency Council on Child Abuse and Neglect). Since that time, Richstone has expanded its staff from six to more than 135, increased the number of programs offered; expanded the area of service from Hawthorne to include the southwest corner of Los Angeles County and the Greater South Bay; increased the number of sites offering services to include six school districts, opened a Transitional Living facility and a satellite office in Torrance. Richstone offers services for children from birth to 18 and for parents in their teens to grandparents in their sixties. Throughout this period of rapid growth, Richstone invested 83%-90% of all revenue to directly serve the highest need communities.
