VSD Podcast 040: St. Nick Day 2007

Every December 6th, we celebrate St. Nick Day and the spirit of generosity by providing backpacks filled with school supplies, books, and toys to some of the under-served elementary school children in San Diego county.  We selected eight schools and delivered 2500 backpacks to students in kindergarten, first, and second grade, and read the story of St. Nicholas to the students. 

I spent some time in the morning reading at Maryland Elementary in Vista.  Principal Acacia Thede spent some time with me to catch up on the events of the morning. 

To find out more about how you can help, check our website at www.volunteersandiego.org, or give us a call at 858-636-4131.  Visit Rubio's restaurants in San Diego county, and order a St. Nick Meal.  One dollar is donated to Volunteer San Diego for every meal sold.
