My daughters and I recently volunteered with their school at Mitzvah Circle Foundation on MLK Day…read more I was so touched by this organization which helped 45,000 people, including over 2,000 children with developmental issues last year alone. I really enjoyed not only meeting, but hearing what founder Fran had to say about her original plans for her non profit organization (which grew tremendously over the last few years), as well as their mission, and how the process exactly works. She told touching stories of those she has helped and it really inspired me to do more! I really liked knowing that our time was really needed and our donations were headed to the appropriate places. I love the fact that The Mitzvah Circle creates individualized care packages. They aim to satisfy the personal needs of each and every family/person on a one on one basis. Whether it's school supplies, outerwear, educational toys, pajamas, or sturdy shoes, they will do their best to send seasonal, correctly sized items with each package their volunteers create and deliver. They have many ways you can help... -Donating very gently used items on weekdays. Their motto for donating clothes is "if you wouldn't put it on your child or wear it, don't send it". They noted the item we bag up and send may be the nicest article of clothing they have. Good to keep in mind. It definitely makes this Mama feel a lot better about some of those pricier items we part with. They accept all sizes, all season, all genders. Shoes are definitely an item they don't have enough of! Send 'em!They ask that you call or email before dropping off so they can be sure someone can help you unload your goods. They did say email is the fastest method of communication. -Donating a monetary gift through their site. That money will be used to purchase diapers and baby soap. (They are the ONLY organization which provides diapers to families in neeed! They also send out 500 bottle of baby soap every 2 weeks!) -Volunteer. There are many days to lend a hand. I posted a photo of upcoming available dates of service. Often groups, schools and business come together and select a day to help out too! Contact them if you think you may have a larger group interested in helping out! Volunteering was rewarding and easy. They are a very organized and well oiled machine. My children ages 5&7 had no issues helping out. They really enjoyed bagging the 5 toiletry items as well seeing how fast they could help us separate the garments by size into appropriate bins. Everything was explained well and we accomplished a great deal in our 3 hour slot. I've already been bagging up some goods to take up there. If you are looking to give a bit more in whatever way you can this year, I couldn't recommend this organization any more! I was happy to be a part of it and look forward to working with them a lot more!

Absolutely lovely and kind people who run this charity organization. I had the opportunity to meet…read moreFran Held who is the founder and executive director. She gave me a tour of their warehouse where they sort and ship donations to those who need then the most but cannot afford. These include school supplies for deserving kids, shoes, toiletries, food, books, etc. I was so impressed by this kind-hearted lady and appreciate the amount of effort and dedication it takes to run such an organization. So glad to be able to chip in with what I can to help those in need through this organization.

I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking in the warminster area!

He started out with Miss Madison & Miss Monica and they did a really great job as he was transitioning and getting used to a new space. I loved hearing at pickup how great of a day he had. Now his current teachers Miss Kayla & Miss Madison have been awesome with training him to use the restroom. I explained what I have been doing at home and they have really been on top of getting him fully potty trained! Whenever I have a concern I love how they are so attentive with answering questions and finding solutions. I am happy with the care he receives and I love how he never has anything negative to say about his teachers! I am at ease knowing he is in a loving environment where he actually wants to go to school every day to see Miss Kelly & Miss Sydney as soon as we walk in as well as his teachers once we get in the classroom! I would recommend COA Warmister if you are looking for a place where they value you as a parent first!

To paraphrase, their services have been providing programs, support, and services to special-needs children. The Philadelphia chapter of this international not-for-profit organization has been serving the Greater Philadelphia area since 1935. The programs and services offered by Tent 13 are "designed to best address the children's physical, social, medical, educational, and recreational needs without regards to economic status, race, creed, gender, or type of disability". It's an amazing organization and I'm very happy to have had the opportunity to meet some of their very talented and bright children; and also to meet the people who make the engine of the charity hum. I'd like to thank a few of them, who I met last night, for their hard work and dedication: Andrew Pack, Executive Director Michelle Bradsher, Communications Director Michael Birnbaum, Director of After School Programs Rebecca Rathje, Development Associate Thank you for all of your hard work! I also want to applaud all of the other members who work so diligently for this organization, all of those wonderful individuals who I did not have the pleasure of meeting last night. And to Miss Angel, one of the Children Ambassadors, thank you for gracing our table last night with your warmth, humor, and generosity. Please, read more about this organization it's amazing!

But, by the end of the first week, he was happily reaching for his favorite teacher at morning drop-off :) The small school size allows for children to receive individualized attention, and the instructors were able to welcome my shy boy and draw him out so that daycare was something he looked forward to! Every instructor I met seemed to really enjoy working there and caring for the kids, which soothed a lot of my parental guilt (haha) and left me feeling confident that he was in good hands. Highly recommend!
