We’re thrilled to share some joyful news with our Atascadero community! Recently, the Atascadero Police Foundation had the honor of hosting a special birthday party for four incredible birthday boys at Echo Homeless Shelter. This event was all about bringing smiles and joy to those who need it most, and we couldn’t be prouder of the love and support we received from our community.
A Day Full of Fun
Thanks to the dedication of our officers, dispatchers, and volunteers, the party was a heartwarming success! The kids enjoyed delicious cake, which was generously donated by Vons and beautifully decorated by our APF volunteers. They also had fun at a cookie decorating station provided by Lonely Oak Arts, where their creativity truly shined. And let’s not forget the surprise guest—our beloved K9 Maverick! He brought extra joy to the day and reminded everyone just how much love our four-legged friends can bring.
Community Connections
This birthday party was more than just a celebration; it was a reminder of the importance of community and connection. We believe that by coming together and supporting one another, we can create a brighter future for everyone.
Thank You!
A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to this event—your generosity and kindness make a difference! We also want to give a special shout-out to KSBY for their coverage and support; it helps us spread the word about our community efforts. We look forward to hosting more events that foster connection and support in our community.
Looking Ahead
We are gearing up for holiday celebrations including our Annual Holiday Toy Drive. The New Year is just around the corner and we can’t wait to celebrate even more amazing kids in our community at our next ECHO birthday party- January 25,2025.
Here’s to more celebrations and shared moments in Atascadero! 🎉💙
