Heartlines Fall 2011
Casa Pacifica’s Stepping Stone Project Making Great Strides Forward
Heartlines
C
asa Pacifica is very excited to move forward
with new housing for its Coaching
Independence in Transitional Youth (CITY)
Program to compliment the two housing options
already offered to emancipated foster youth.
Currently, the CITY
program offers young
adults who qualify a choice
of independent living
apartments or semiindependent living
“community nests” in
private homes around the
county. The new Stepping
Stone Program will offer
newly emancipated youth,
whose independent living skills need more
development, the opportunity to hone their skills
in a “house parent” living situation.
Vicki Murphy, Casa Pacifica’s Chief Advancement
Officer & Director of Alumni Services, conceived
the Stepping Stone project as she drove down
the agency’s driveway each morning. She would
look at three abandoned
buildings on a property

her mind, and the need for a Stepping Stone
form of housing became more apparent.
for this unexpected and substantial financial
support for the project.
With approval from Casa Pacifica’s Board of
Directors for the project and help from Ventura
County Supervisor Steve
Bennett, Casa Pacifica’s
CEO, Dr. Steve Elson and
Vicki Murphy met with
Ventura County officials.
The County was enthusiastic
about the program and its
goals, recognizing the
tremendous need for
emancipated youth housing,
and approved adding the
2-acre parcel to the property
Casa Pacifica already leases from the county.
Mrs. Murphy once again couldn’t wait to share
the news with the Bakers. Sean Baker responded,
“If you’ve got someone committing that much
to this project, my partner and I will do all the
renovations for you. We’ll cover everything.”
Mr. Baker and his partner, Gary Simons, own
Upside Investments, a real estate organization
that buys properties and adds value to them by
reconfiguring their use, as well as Projects West
Construction, which specializes in the redesign
and renovation of multi-unit residential buildings.
This project was right up their alley. Vicki Murphy
couldn’t believe her ears. It was a banner day,
needless to say, for the Stepping Stone Project!
When Vicki Murphy told Sean Baker and his
wife Dianna the news,
they were very excited.
The Bakers have pledged
a half-million dollars over
three years to create the
CITY Program and develop
a funding stream for it.
Bill Powell, a supporter of
Casa Pacifica and sponsor
of the 2011 Wine & Food
Festival, was also moved
by the news. As Chairman of the Board for
Granite Construction, Mr. Powell invited the
Santa Barbara Area Manager of the industrygiant construction firm, Bruce McGowan, to
come out to look at the property to see if his
company could help. After meeting with Vicki
Murphy, Granite Construction pledged to provide
all the hardscape for the property and only charge
Casa Pacifica for the cost of materials With such
a generous offer on the table, Mr. Powell said he
would personally cover the cost of the materials.
Vicki Murphy was speechless and very grateful

Work on the new housing has included clearing
the property of wild vegetation and trimming
overgrown trees by two
volunteer crews from the
California Conservation Corps,
Region II/Camarillo Center.
Actual renovation of the
buildings began in the middle
of October, and construction
is expected to take 90-120
days. The only element of
the project left that needs
assistance is landscaping.
Casa Pacifica is thrilled to have the Stepping
Stone project well underway and sincerely
thanks each individual, business, and volunteer
who has made it possible. Expectations are that
newly emancipated youth will be able to move
into the Stepping Stone houses in March!
From the President of the Board of Directors
T
he kids we serve at Casa Pacifica arrive with baggage. Many suffer from acute anxiety
and depression, pre-natal exposure to drugs, and post-traumatic stress, not to mention
organic emotional disturbance. They run away, they lash out at others, and they can be
destructive. These behaviors, considered abnormal and alarming
elsewhere, are seen on our campus as the normal byproducts of
suffering. The prospect of treating these symptoms and the conditions
that provoke them is a daunting one for our staff. Yet day in and day
out, they tell our kids that no matter what has happened to them,
they are valued human beings with a right to be safe and successful.
They embed deep in the consciousness of each child who crosses our
threshold the message that he or she matters.
From the Chief Executive Officer
N
Several years ago, a 12-year-old I’ll call Gabriella visited one of our
David E. Wood, Esq. Board of Directors meetings with two of the clinicians who worked
with her. Gabriella was shy, but responded to Board members’
President
questions about her daily life with a quiet intensity that caught my
attention. She was bright and sensitive. Her artwork, which she displayed proudly, was full
of emotion. Gabriella seemed even-tempered and cooperative.
A few days later, I was surprised to see Gabriella running across the parking lot, pursued at
a distance by a staff member. She was having a meltdown. She ran and cursed, ran some
more, and cursed some more. As Gabriella worked off steam, the staff person stayed a
respectful 10-20 feet away, speaking softly and reassuringly, telling her she was safe and
inviting her to come back home.
I knew from Gabriella’s clinicians that she had suffered terrible emotional and sexual abuse
much of her short life. I knew that she sometimes blew her stack, unable to cope when
counseling brought up memories she preferred to forget. And I knew I was witnessing what
our loving and professional staff does every day. They help kids like Gabriella, who are
suffering in ways we can barely imagine, feel safe. They teach new ways to cope with
childhood trauma and emotional disturbance. They teach alternatives to substance abuse and
other self-destructive behaviors. Our staff loves these kids until they learn to love themselves.
As Gabriella’s crisis passed, she slowed down and began to cry. The demons seemed to
leave her. She walked quietly through the front door with her clinician. Although I could not
make out the words, I could hear his tone, soothing, respectful and loving. Gabriella was
hearing the mantra: you are safe, you are loved, you matter. I have never been more proud of
our staff, and the work they do without fanfare every single day, than I was that morning.
Nothing says more about who we are as a society than how we treat and care for our
neediest children and their families. Casa Pacifica meets children and families in the most
challenging moments of their lives. This holiday season, let’s celebrate the superlative work
of our staff by recommitting ourselves to the small acts of service—be it volunteering for
the kids’ holiday party, helping with toy distribution, or writing a check—that profoundly
affect the lives of these children. Through our support, let’s tell Casa Pacifica’s dedicated,
patient, and compassionate employees and volunteers how proud we are of them.
Above all, by funding the people and facilities at Casa Pacifica, let’s tell the children who
come into our care that suffering is not inevitable, and that they are safe here.

w w w . c a s a p a c i f i c a . o r g
ot long ago I received a letter from Madge Schaffer,
who was a member of the Ventura County Board of
Supervisors when Casa Pacifica was originally being conceived.
In 1989, Madge facilitated holding the first Angels Ball at the
Sherwood Country Club and chaired that inaugural event. For
several years in the early 1990s, she was instrumental in assuring
that Casa Pacifica was a recipient of the proceeds from the
Steven E. Elson, Ph.D.
Shark Shootout (Greg Norman’s nationally televised golf
Chief Executive Officer
tournament). Upon receiving her letter I took the opportunity
to call Madge, who now lives in Hawaii, and we reminisced
about Casa Pacifica’s beginnings. She told me other Casa Pacifica stories that I hadn’t
heard before.
In the course of that conversation Madge made two comments that struck me. First
was that Casa Pacifica had turned out to be so much more than even the founders
had dreamed and, second, how proud she was to have played a role in getting it off
the ground and how important leaving a legacy is for us all. In reflecting on that
phone call I dug into some data about the legacy this community leaves by
embracing the children for whom we care—more than 13,000 since we opened.
Here are some facts about that legacy, which continues and even grows:
• Over 1,600 folks—mostly women—have joined the Angels Auxiliary. They put on
three premier events a year that, since their inception, have raised more than $8
million collectively for our region’s most vulnerable children.
• Angels’ special events’ attendance—cumulative over the years—has topped 45,000.
• 190 campus volunteers work an average of an hour a week—about 10,000 hours
annually, or the equivalent of five full-time staff.
• Dozens of Amigos have staged well over 100 events for kids on campus—28 this
year alone.
• Scores of Amgen, Target, Pentair, National Charity League volunteers, and others,
join our Angels and Amigos to spend hours decorating the gym for three major
children’s events each year.
• Rotary Clubs of Camarillo have raised more than $1.5 million for Casa Pacifica in
the annual golf tournament they have hosted for the last 19 years.
• 20,000 plus individuals have donated money or in-kind gifts.
• 120 of Ventura County’s most influential citizens have served as Board members.
• Including the original capital campaign & events, donors have given $30 million.
It is this kind of support that enables us to continue to admit a child into one of our
programs every three hours and, in addition to our campus programs, to provide
services to children and families in their own homes and communities from Santa
Maria to Santa Barbara to Santa Paula to Simi Valley. We do not duplicate services
provided in our region—every program is unique to Casa Pacifica. And, all of our
services are nationally accredited.
As a member of the original Casa Pacifica steering committee often said, “It’s
amazing what a community can do when it comes together on behalf of its most
vulnerable children.”

Your Donations Really Do Make a Difference
A
staff member from our community-based Supportive Behavioral Services program
emailed this story to Jody Kussin, Casa Pacifica’s Director of Community ServiceVentura County. Her heartfelt words clearly illustrate how donations from our
community can tremendously impact the life of a child or family.
I wanted to take a moment and personally thank you for the opportunity to provide a family
I work with tickets to the circus. I heard of the offer via text message on Tuesday evening and
I immediately thought of a family who could benefit from such an opportunity. Due to the late
hour, I waited to contact the family until first thing in the morning. Here is a brief description
of what occurred.
I was scheduled to be in an all-day training, so I knew I was limited to short phone calls to
provide the mother of this family with the circus ticket information. At first she was somewhat
uncertain of the offer, asking me how much the tickets were and how many were available.
I explained that they were free and had been donated to our organization to be used for our
children or a family. The mother was somewhat speechless, stating that she has wanted to take
her family to the circus for many years, but could not afford to as this was more than a luxury
for a single mom raising four children on a very limited budget.
the tickets came with parking passes, so that would be one less expense for her to worry
about. Within the hour she called me back, overwhelmed with joy, stating she would be able to
make the trip and was so blessed and grateful for our generosity.
I drove out to the house later that day to personally hand deliver the tickets to her, and was
greeted with tears of joy and thankfulness, and found myself feeling equally as blessed and
fortunate to have been given the opportunity to give to this family. I am so proud to work for
an organization that has allowed me the ability to give back to the community I live in, and to
provide joy and happiness to a family so appreciative, so thankful, and never expecting to
receive such an amazing gift.
This outing provided an opportunity for the family to bond and connect with one another and
to experience a truly memorable event, one they will look back on for many years to come. I am
so proud to work for Casa Pacifica—knowing that the values we represent in the work we do
every day have such positive impact on the lives we touch. Thank you for allowing me to be
a part of such a humbling and truly inspirational moment. It was for me as well, a truly
memorable event, and one I too will reflect on in the years to come.

The mother told me that she would get back to me with an answer, but first needed to pray,
because she still needed money for food and gas to make the trip to L.A. I advised her that
Archie Update
S
ince the last issue of Heartlines, Archie has had a couple of exciting events take place.
First, Archie experienced his first limousine ride! During a short stay at The Barkley in
Westlake Village one weekend, Archie was supposed to be groomed before he was
picked up Monday morning, but a miscommunication resulted in him not being washed,
fluffed, and ready to go on time. The Barkley
staff remedied the situation, grooming Archie
and then providing door-to-door service to
Casa Pacifica. It was quite a sight to see
Archie arrive in such style!
A more lasting highlight that took place was
Archie was chosen to model for A Letter to
My Dog, a new coffee table book to be
published by P.Q. Blackwell. Casa Pacifica’s
friend Kimi Culp is a part of the project and
suggested they consider Archie as one of the
60 dogs portrayed in the book. Robin Layton,
the project’s author and photographer, chose
Archie and came to Casa Pacifica in September
to photograph him. She was very excited
about Archie and the wonderful work he
performs here. Casa Pacifica’s kids wrote
letters about Archie and several of their
quotes will be featured on Archie’s page. We
are looking forward to seeing Archie’s spread
in the finished book and will announce when
it will be available for purchase.
Along with his regular duties, Archie had a
special job in October playing with our kids
and keeping them busy during the California
Shake-Out event in which Casa Pacifica
participated with other agencies and schools
statewide. The California Shake-Out was
designed in order to practice emergency
procedures in the case of a major earthquake.
It was a very successful drill and Archie successfully performed his duties of keeping the
children distracted and happy.

Cyclecross Bicycle Race Takes Place at Casa Pacifica
I
n September, Casa Pacifica’s campus served as the site for an unusual form of
bicycle racing called Cyclocross. Organized and hosted by M4K
Cycling/Newbury Park Bike Shop, over 300 riders ranging in age categories
from Under 10 to Masters 55+ participated in the event. Cyclocross races
cover a short “track” (usually 1.5 to 2 miles long) made up of different types
of terrain—pavement, trails, grass, hills, as well as some obstacles that require
the rider to get off his bike and carry it, sometimes while running. The bicycles
are a hybrid of street racing bike and mountain bike, with cantilevered brakes
to avoid mud build-up and knobbed tires for better traction.
Casa Pacifica’s “track”
included a barrier section,
a stair-run-up, a ride
through the gymnasium’s
barn doors, and a tour
around the campus’ BMX
bike track. Prior to the
race on Sunday, Newbury
Park Bike Shop held a
bicycle clinic for Casa
Pacifica’s residents to
learn safety and bike
handling skills. Also, in
conjunction with the
Schwinn Back-to-Bike
program, Newbury Park
Bike Shop donated 45
BMX bikes and helmets
to Casa Pacifica. Racers
from some of the
different teams were on

with the kids, followed by
some time riding with the kids on the new bikes. At the end of the day each
child received a specially designed “finisher’s medal.” The Conejo Valley
Kiwanis were on hand both Saturday and Sunday to provide a delicious
barbeque lunch for Casa Pacifica’s kids, the staff, and the racers.

W
hile many businesses and groups donated their time and energies to helping
Casa Pacifica and its children over the past few months since the last Heartlines
issue, the following highlight just a few of those efforts:
Human Clothing Company’s Skateboard
Competition Raises Money for Casa Pacifica
J
oe Kennelty and his wife Sarah started Human Clothing Company after Joe lost his
job as a graphic designer last year. Since his clothing line has become popular with
the skateboard crowd, Joe and his wife wanted to do something not only to get their
name out in the public, but also to benefit a
worthy cause in the community—Casa
Pacifica’s kids! They organized and hosted the
For the Humans Skate Competition, which was
held at Camarillo Skate Park in October. A big
crowd watched the competition, including
about 30 of Casa Pacifica’s youth (a few of
whom skated in the contest). Skateboard
enthusiasts from age 8-30 signed up to
compete, totaling about 50. The event also
featured a DJ, food, music by a Ventura band
named New Liberty, and professional
skateboarder Neal Mims judged the
competition. The Kenneltys donated 10% of the proceeds from the Human Clothing
Company sales at the competition to Casa Pacifica. We thank them both for choosing
Casa Pacifica, for their generosity and compassion, and for including our kids in such a
wonderful and fun event!
Benise
B
enise, talented guitarist and a favorite
Wine & Food Festival yearly performer, generously
donated several tickets to his new show, “The Spanish
Guitar,” performed at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts
Plaza on October 6th. Ten youth and staff members
were dazzled by Benise’s spectacular musicianship and
all the colorful, vivid, captivating elements of the
show. It was an unforgettable experience for all!
Thank you, Benise, for this special treat!

asa Pacifica was proud to be selected as one of three charities to be the recipient of
proceeds from the 5th Annual Golf Tournament hosted by California United Bank (CUB)
in October. Held at the beautiful Sherwood Country Club, the event honored Dan Selleck, a
member of Casa Pacifica’s Board of Directors, as this year’s winner of California United Bank’s
Community Service Award. A full field enjoyed a great day of championship
golf on Sherwood’s well-known and challenging layout, with special

cocktail reception, a delicious gourmet dinner, an awards presentation
for the tournament’s winners, a fabulous live auction, a “Loser’s” Raffle,
and a helicopter ball drop.
or the third year in a row, employees from Alcoa Fastening Systems in
Newbury Park spent a Saturday on Casa Pacifica’s campus as part of Alcoa’s
global Month of Service, which encourages their employees to give time in
the community to benefit it in some way. More than 90 volunteers spent the
day at Casa Pacifica cleaning up the Sacred Space area, installing a watering
system, painting and placing stepping stone pavers, weeding and cleaning the
Teaching Garden, planting fruit trees, and painting some of the campus’s rod
iron fencing. Once all the hard work was finished, Casa Pacifica’s children and
staff members were invited to share a yummy barbeque lunch with all the
Alcoa employees. Archie came by to say “hello” and to express Casa Pacifica’s
thanks for all the generous efforts that Alcoa and their employees put forth,
and to thank them for choosing to benefit Casa Pacifica and its children,
once again, with their global Month of Service volunteer efforts!
CUB’s tournament website explains the purpose of the event: “We’re all
swinging to support the young people and the programs provided for them
at the Boys & Girls Club of the West Valley, in addition to Casa Pacifica and Carousel Ranch.
Playing in CUB’s Tourney is not just ‘playing,’ it’s supporting the betterment of our young
people and of our community—today and tomorrow.”

children and youth on Casa Pacifica’s baseball field. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon of friendly
competition between teams made up of Rexnord employees and Casa Pacifica children and
staff members. Following the energetic kickball game, Rexnord also hosted a delicious barbeque
lunch for everyone. It was a great day of smiles, laughter, and healthy competition!
Along with their gift of time spent with the kids, the Rexnord employees brought two generous
contributions for Casa Pacifica—the first was a substantial monetary donation in the form of a
$1,500 check, and the second was 15 gift-filled laundry baskets for Casa Pacifica’s CITY
program. The baskets held much needed items for newly emancipating foster youth such as a
Crock Pot, George Foreman Grill, family cookbook, kitchen utensils, and much more. These
baskets will help give a great start to emancipated young adults as they start down the new,
unfamiliar, and sometimes bumpy road to responsibility and independence.
Our heartfelt thanks go to all the Rexnord employees who took time to bring some fun, food,
and much appreciated care to Casa Pacifica’s children.

Planned Giving
Maximize Your Year-End Gift Benefits
G
enerosity knows no season, but this is historically the time most people give and
receive—and begin income tax planning. Here are some ideas on how to map out
a plan for making a difference at Casa Pacifica Centers for Children and Families.
How Can YOU Help?
• Give cash. To document a cash gift of any amount, you must have a receipt from us
prior to filing your return that states the date of the gift, the amount, and whether
you received any goods or services in exchange for your donation. Make certain you
receive one. A cancelled check provides sufficient documentation only for gifts by
check if they are less than $250.
• Give stock or other property. If the property has depreciated in value, sell it and
deduct the loss to the extent allowed by law. Then donate the cash received from its
sale. That way you have another deduction. If it is worth more than what you
originally paid for it, do not sell it. Donate the property to us—we'll sell it and you
will eliminate all the capital gains tax you would have paid had you sold it. Your gift
will be deductible at its full fair market value on its date of delivery if you have held it
for more than one year.
Annual Fundraising Goal: $2.4 Million
• Sell an appreciated asset for less than its current value to us (a bargain sale gift).
The difference between the fair market value of the property and what you receive in
the sale is considered the gift—and the charitable deduction.
With a gift to a qualified charitable organization such as Casa Pacifica Centers for
Children and Families, you can receive the greatest tax advantages when donating this
year. Contact Carrie Hughes at (805) 445-7831 or [email protected] with any
questions about your options for giving or your entitled benefits.

Care For Kids Golf Classic
T
he 19th annual Care For Kids Golf Classic, hosted by the Rotary
Clubs of Camarillo, was held on July 18th at the Spanish Hills
Country Club, and was once again a great success, raising $90,400
for Casa Pacifica and other Rotary charities. Petra and Al Lowe and
Stu Avery co-chaired the tournament. This year’s event honored
Geoff Dean, Ventura County’s Sheriff and a Casa Pacifica Board of Directors member, and
his wife Marlene. The Deans are long time residents of Ventura County. Mrs. Dean spends
her days as a mathematics professor, while Geoff Dean has been with the Ventura County
Sheriff’s Office for 32 years. He is involved in a number of community activities including
the Camarillo Noon Time Rotary, Casa Pacifica’s Board of Directors, and the American
Cancer Society’s Community Council. The couple was honored and recognized for their
passion for the safety and wellbeing of our community’s children.

reception and awards dinner. Lively bidding during the Live Auction for such items as golf
outings; advertising packages; a 100-piece DVD collection; a wine tasting adventure; a Blue
Ray Disc system with Blue Ray movies; hotel packages; home improvement packages;
sporting event tickets including Laker tickets, Dodger tickets, and USC basketball tickets;
special private gourmet dinners hosted in beautiful private home settings; a luxurious leather
recliner; cutting-edge dermatological treatments; and ten VIP Tickets to next year’s Angels
Wine & Food Festival ensured the tournament’s fundraising efforts were very profitable.
The golf tournament’s proceeds will go toward the $2.6 million that must be raised this
year in private donations to meet budgeted expenses for Casa Pacifica’s wide variety of
programs and services. We are very grateful to the Rotary Clubs of Camarillo for their
loving and constant support of Casa Pacifica through the Care For Kids Golf Classic. Our
gratitude also goes to the co-chairs and their committee for giving so much of their time
and energy to planning and this wonderful and popular event. Our thanks go as well to

Spotlight on Style Fashion Show Features Fashion’s Finest
T
he Spotlight on Style Fashion Show – Ventura County’s
premiere fashion event—celebrated its tenth anniversary this
fall, set amid the elegant and beautiful accommodations of
the ballroom at the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village, which
features enormous, sparkling
crystal chandeliers. This year’s
event honored the Angels
auxiliary’s past presidents,
special women who
unselfishly shared their
leadership and vision over
a time frame spanning
twenty years.
Fashion show guests enjoyed a superb luncheon and a fabulous
assortment of desserts generously donated by Confectionately
Yours, Couture CupCakery by Michelle, Find Sconehenge Baking,
Kelsey’s Anytime Fudge, Missy’s Cupcake Creations, and T is for
Toffee. A captivating runway show, produced by Carin Holmenas
Productions, followed lunch and featured the latest in elegant
designs from Madison Boutique, Jessica Barcley, Kevan Hall, and
Edwards-Lowell of Beverly Hills. Four male models—Bob Endres,
Ryan Haynie, Ben Hopps, and Edmond Roche, winners of last year’s
male model auction, showed off designs from Men’s Wearhouse.
Next to the glorious fashions, the highlight of the afternoon was
a short presentation about Casa Pacifica, centered by a brief, yet
truly moving video about the agency and the children it serves.
There were few, if any, dry eyes in the house.
Outside the ballroom, a diverse and unique group of boutique
vendors offered the latest fashions, exquisite jewelry, stylish handbags,
and unique giftware. A silent auction table featured wonderful
gift baskets filled with assortments of items, such as the Devine
Getaway basket that included an
overnight stay for two at the Four
Seasons Hotel Westlake Village;
his-and-hers plush, full-length
robes; breakfast; dinner at
Hamptons or Onyx; special Spa
treatments; and cooking lessons
in the Wellness Kitchen. Or there
was the Wine and Dine basket
with two VIP tickets and four
general admission tickets to the next Casa Pacifica Wine & Food
Festival, a $50 gift certificate to the Napa Tavern in Westlake
Village; a $25 gift certificate to Sheila’s Wine Bar & Grill in
Camarillo, six wine tastings at Malibu Winery, four bottles of
Tobin James Wine, a party wine bucket; and the book “Sniffing
the Cork.”
It was a spectacular afternoon at the Four Seasons Hotel
and Casa Pacifica’s gratitude goes to the endlessly energetic
Angels “Spotlight on Style” chairwoman, Patricia Cordover,
and to her fashion show committee for all their creative
brainstorming, dedication, and hard work resulting, once again,
in an unforgettable and enjoyable afternoon, which raised
$48,000 (net) for Casa Pacifica and the children it serves.
Calamigos Ranch Hosts Casa Pacifica’s Kids for End of Summer Party
C
asa Pacifica’s children celebrated the end of summer at the beautiful, pastoral Calamigos Ranch in Malibu
by participating in a great variety of fun activities. The kids enjoyed swimming, paddling around the pond
in paddle boats, challenging staff to a game of horseshoes, jumping in the Panda bounce
house, bouncing down the inflatable slide, and competing in contests such as the egg toss. A
fantastic, mouth-watering barbeque lunch was also provided. Casa Pacifica Angel Board
member Linda Landau arranged this special event with Glen Gerson, the owner of
Calamigos Ranch. Our sincere gratitude goes to Mr. and Mrs. Gerson and to all
the staff at Calamigos for planning and hosting such a memorable day for our
kids. Our deep thanks go as well to Mr. and Mrs. Herve Willems who provided
funding for a bus to transport the children to and from Casa Pacifica. It was a
happy day, full of laughter, smiles, and fun for Casa Pacifica’s kids, and a day
that won’t be soon forgotten!
Linda Landau and Jane Semones, Children's Events Co-Chairs.

Amigos Events
Donations Needed for Holiday Boutique • December 16th
I
W
n addition to their work on the wonderful
Halloween maze our amazing Amigos
also held a fantastic soccer clinic, and
completed their three-weekend Pinewood
Derby event in the past couple of months.
It’s been a great fall season for the kids and
our Amigos!
ould you like to help a child give a gift this season?
You can, by donating to our annual Holiday Gift Boutique. This special event gives
Casa Pacifica’s children the opportunity to buy holiday gifts for their family members,
teachers, social workers, and others who are important in their lives (using allowance
money they’ve earned for good behavior skills). We need items for women, men, boys, and
girls, such as perfume, games, candles, lotions, stationery, wallets, picture frames, money
clips, ties, colognes, etc. The gifts are sorted (by gender and age), placed on tables, and
priced from $1.00-$3.00. Once the children have shopped, volunteers beautifully wrap the
gifts so the children have something special to present to their loved ones. Shopping for
those they care about makes the children feel good. They enjoy having a gift in-hand that
they’ve chosen themselves when they visit their homes for the holiday. Along with gift
items, donations of gift bags, tissue, ribbons, boxes, tape, and wrapping paper are also
appreciated. Please bring donated items to Casa Pacifica between 8 am and 6 pm, Monday
through Friday. Also, please identify that the items are for the Holiday Boutique when you
drop them off.
If you would like to volunteer along with the Angels to help wrap gifts, or if you have any
questions, please call (805) 484-7126.
Halloween Party Visits Haunted Ghost Town
C
asa Pacifica’s children enjoyed a great
time at this year’s haunted ghost townthemed Halloween Party, hosted by the Casa
Pacifica Angels. Each Casa Pacifica department
manned its own booth that featured and
activity or game for the kids to play. The
Angels, Amigos, Amgen college hires group,
and Boys Teen Charity all worked together to
create an amazing haunted house maze that
featured the
ghost town’s
saloon, jail,
hanging
gallows, and
cemetery. The
details and
quality of the maze were unbelievable once
again and elicited lots of jumps and screams!
The kids loved every minute of the Halloween
Party and Casa Pacifica is grateful to everyone
who worked so hard to make it such a
huge success! Thank you!

Gift Card Wish List
G
ift Cards:
An Easy Way
To Give!
Stop by your favorite stores and
restaurants, or visit their
websites to buy gift cards
online. Please do not donate
bank cards (including those to
specific shopping malls), and
check to see they don’t charge
monthly fees, since many do
and that reduces the amount
that Casa Pacifica actually can
use for the children. Gift cards
from individual stores are
very helpful!
Thank you for your support!

Wish List
Help Make the Season Bright
magine for a moment…it’s the holiday season and a child sits alone without the
closeness and warmth of family. This is the case for more than 400 children that Casa
Pacifica serves each day. With the holidays approaching, Casa Pacifica has begun
planning ways to provide gifts for all of our children. We’re asking for help from friends,
such as you, to assist us in any way possible, whether with a gift of cash, merchandise,
