Teen Volunteers in Action holds kick-off in Rancho Santa Fe

Teen Volunteers in Action-SD3, a new chapter of the parent/son volunteer organization, hosted its kick-off meeting Aug. 25 at the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center. Teen Volunteers in Action comprises middle and high school boys (grades 7-12) who together with their families commit to a program of volunteerism, philanthropy, and personal development.

Faye Bell, the founder of Military Outreach Ministry (MOM4USA), spoke at the event. TVIA parents and teens contributed various canned food items and helped out by sorting and tagging them. These items will be distributed to military personnel at Camp Pendelton. For more information, visit www.tvia.org. Photos/Jon Clark
