Securing Emergency Resources through Volunteer Efforts Inc. will host its first Kids Day event to culminate summer in preparation for the upcoming school year. There will be a moon bounce, face painting, games, prizes and fun for all of the children and residents at the shelter.

Volunteers will help make this event a success through their efforts. Kids Day will be held Saturday from noon to 2 p.m. at 10056 Dean Drive, Manassas.

SERVE Inc. provides temporary emergency shelter for 60 homeless families and individuals nightly, operates transitional housing programs in Manassas and provides emergency food and financial assistance to needy residents in the local community. In FY 2009, SERVE’s Food Distribution Center provided $2 Million worth of donated food to and nearly 900 households monthly.

SERVE relies on financial and in-kind support from concerned individuals, local businesses, churches and community groups to sustain these programs.
