NCL Buckhead Event at Ellis Center: A Disco Day to Remember!
This month, our friends from the National Charity League, Buckhead, got groovy as they hosted a disco-themed social event for our students at the Ellis Center. Our students spent a Saturday afternoon mingling with other teens in the community, creating sensory bottles, making slime, and crafting with the spin art machine, as they danced the day away in between!
A major thank you to for making this all possible. It was truly a fun time for our students, families, volunteers, and everyone involved. Swipe to see the captured memories!
