| Can You Help ? There is a group of young adolescents ages 12 to 18 in Santa Ana at a place called Phoenix House, a drug and alcohol rehab . They are usually sent there by the courts. The staff is doing a very good job of rehabilitating these young people. Most of them have not had much of a family life. During the time they are there they are taught the value of family and of social responsibility. Martha Wida has volunteered there for several years with the U C Master Gardeners teaching them gardening. At the moment they are in need of wood to make more square foot gardening boxes. They hope to have one raised bed for each student. (45) The beds are four feet square and about 6" high. They will consider anything anyone has. Please contact Martha directly if you have anything to offer. mwida@surfside.net |
