St. Jude’s Ranch for Children Texas cares for children and families who have been affected by trauma, abuse and neglect. This organization provides a family living environment, preserves the sibling bond, and supplies the tools to break the cycle of abuse. The ultimate goal is to help these youngest victims of trauma and abuse find forever family or achieve self-sufficiency. On-site at the conference, you will assemble summer kits which could include a beach towel, movie ticket, hygiene kit, pool toys, or a special item, game or toy for the children based on their wants/needs.
