We are working together to send some gift cards from local restaurants/businesses like Walmart, Target, SaveMart, Chipotle, etc, to her. If you would like to contribute cash or gift cards, please see Denise Simonian in the Mail Department.

Denise will be accepting donations up until 3/4/22.

Thank you for your support and contributions to Julie at this time.

Fresno Office: CLOSED for President’s Day!

Just a reminder that our offices will be closed on Monday, February 21, 2022, in observance of the Presidents’ Day holiday. 

Fun Fact:  Presidents’ Day is a federal holiday that is now celebrated on the third Monday in February.  It was originally established back in 1885 and honored the February 22nd birthday of George Washington.  The current celebratory structure came about in 1971 as part of the Uniform Monday Holiday Act, which sought to create more 3-day weekends for U.S. workers.  Presidents’ Day is now viewed as a day to celebrate all past and present U.S. presidents.

Enjoy your 3 day weekend!
