Pick-a-Purse Was a Huge Success!
We are so grateful for all those who came out to our third annual Pick-a-Purse event, where all guests are treated to lunch and can choose a purse filled with goodies from our sponsors. Purses are drawn based on numbers chosen at the event. We had over 260 women in attendance, and everyone had so much fun choosing purses while raising money for the children and families of Olive Crest.
Thank you to Heather Scott, Tiffany Avery, and Kelley Womack for speaking at our event and sharing their stories. Thank you, also, to our amazing volunteers for working hard to make our event so wonderful!

Former Olive Crest Youth Give Back
Recently, Olive Crest in the Inland Empire received a donation from former Olive Crest kids Abbagail and Ricky. Both of them were Olive Crest foster kids just a few years ago and remember how much it meant to receive summer gifts. Abbagail and Ricky were adopted by their foster parents, and now have a loving forever family and home.
Wanting to share this joy with some current Olive Crest kids, Abbagail and Ricky took it upon themselves to collect $160 worth of recyclables and, used the money to purchase new games and toys for our current kiddos. We are so grateful for their generous gift and thoughtful hearts.
Special Thanks
