The kiddos!! 💕

Missing these guys!! For 5 years we provided summer employment for the young men in the De Lasalle vocational program. This day they found a baby bird at the barn and were so happy to watch out for it and put it somewhere safe!! Tough guys turned to mush!! 😂😂💕

Back at their school in the carpentry class they built us a bench to say thank you for having them horsin’ around for the summer! 🥲

The De Lasalle Vocational program was sadly discontinued in 2020. It has worked since 1898 to provide education, residential, vocational and clinical services to court-adjudicated delinquent youth for the City of Philadelphia. It has educated young men in academics as well as carpentry, auto mechanics, and culinary arts, and had “excellent” job placement rates due to comprehensive career development assistance.
