Los Alamitos Youth Center Inc. Awarded Top Rated Nonprofit 2018

LOS ALAMITOS, CA — Whether you sign your child up for wrestling, or to attend the Camp Shark (Science Hands on Art Recreation Knowledge), the Los Alamitos Youth Center has something for everyone. Recently awarded the top nonprofit award by the Great Nonprofits, the Youth Center consistently shows how they are making a difference in the community.

The Mission of The Youth Center is to transform children's lives one family at a time through social, educational and recreational programs, according to the group's website. This week, register for Camp S.H.A.R.K. at Rossoor park, for children aged 5 - 12-years-old.

Kids will be engaged and entertained, and referrals are rewarded with "free field trips" they said.

Other opportunities include wrestling and team skills, offered Tuesday and Thursday this summer at Los Alamitos High School.

And that is just the beginning.

After opening in 1952, this charity "has been honored to have the opportunity to establish valuable partnerships within the community," they said. Volunteers and board members take pride in the cross-county collaborations, of critical importance in their success.
