Adoption Walk aimed at recruiting more foster and adoptive families - a huge success
With the media spotlight focused on another community, we should reflect on our own community and the fact that the plague of child physical and sexual abuse exists in our own backyard.
On Feburary 17, Express Employment Professionals and Pensacola Cordova Rotary teamed up to raise funds for Gulf Coast Kids House by offering the community a unique opportunity to see and ride beautiful Clydesdale horses.
Of a rare black and white color, the Express Clydesdales stand 17-18 hands high and weigh more than 2,000 pounds each. Their shoes are the size of dinner plates and weigh more than three pounds each. They are the reigning National 8-Horse Hitch and National 6-Horse Hitch Champions.
Attendees enjoyed facepainting, food and rides and raised much needed funds to support Gulf Coast Kid's House. Gulf Coast Kids House, Inc. is an independent 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that is not state or federally funded. In 2011, Gulf Coast Kid's House provided services to over 2000 child victims of abuse. The trained professionals under one roof investigate, treat, and prosecute cases of child sexual and physical abuse, and severe neglect; education in child abuse prevention is also provided.
