Community Service

Community Service

Members of the DHF Youth Leadership Group are committed to service. They are some of our most loyal and active volunteers for DHF hosted events. Some of their accomplishments include:

  • Haitipalooza: a benefit concert coordinated by the DHF youth group in response to the Haiti Earthquake. Over $1,000 was raised and donated to Doctors Without Borders.
  • Tree Planting: partnered with Kern County Parks and Recreation to plant trees at local parks and surrounding areas.
  • Community Cleanups: work alongside Vecinos Unidos to clean up and beautify their neighborhoods.
  • Food Bank Distribution: partnered with Cesar Chavez Service Learning Program for weekly food distribution at St. Augustine Church.
  • Annual Toy Giveaway: youth assist Santa in distributing thousands of toys to neighborhood children. They also joined in Christmas caroling and sang holiday songs for residents at a senior facility.
