Chabot Space & Science Center
because art is a science and all kids need science literacy to become fabulous chemists like Tim Holtz!

We could be growing the next generation of little Tim's! :)

John Tracy Clinic, an organization that provides FREE services to families of children with hearing loss (www.jtc.org). They also do hearing screenings at local schools, have a world-wide correspondence course, and a graduate program to train teachers of the deaf. All services are FREE, and are provided world-wide.
