What is KOV Children's Charities Up To?
Update- 9/16-We've had a fun summer with
the kids, we rented them a huge waterslide
for back to school.. and now we are working
on Halloween and a Harvest Festival.. Stay
tuned!
Update 6/24- We have been working with the kids
at More Life Christian Academy for a little over a
year now. We've been able to bring them a
wonderful Christmas, Easter, Food, Clothing, and
entertainment thanks to your donations and
coming to our events! These children all come
from low income homes or are homeless. Please
check out their facebook page to see what they
are all about! Thank you! KOV CC.
In fact, while you are at it check out KOV on
Facebook and give us a LIKE today!
UPDATE 4/3- We had a very successful movie
day at Shriner's, where we had a TON of candy
and popcorn for the kiddos, they watched
"Ferdinand" on the big screen and they loved it.
We thank you for your donations in order to make
these special days a possiblity... XO, Shannon

UPDATE-2/22
Welcome to our new Marketing and PR gal, Wendy
Russell. We need her help, and she loves the kids
and helping us at the hospitals.. it's a perfect fit!
Welcome Wendy!
UPDATE 2/8
WOW. We recently went to the hospitals with our
good friends and partners at Spirit Halloween,
Total Nutrition, Vampire Ball & Corbetts Haunted
House to present a check to each hospital through
the Spirit of Children Charity 501C3.
From Shanda Pierce owner of Spirit Halloween's
of Northern CA- "So proud of our 2018 team!
Presented over $150,000.00 to Valley Children’s,
UC Davis Children’s, and Shriners Children’s
Hospitals! Thank you to Total Nutrition,
Sacramento’s Vampire Ball, Goblin Gardens, &
Corbett’s Haunt!! Spirit of Children ❤ Thank you
to all of our customers and employees!!"
The staff at Spirit Halloween does an
AMAZING job at selling these purple
pumpkins that you see on the walls of their
seasonal shops. Each one of these equates to $1
or $5 donated directly to the hospitals for the Child
Life Program. We decided to help several years
ago though Shannon McCabe's Vampire Ball and
have had many of our volunteers go to the stores
and assist in selling the pumpkins! Shannon
McCabe's Vampire Ball also donates about a 1/3
of the profits of the ball to the Spirit of Children.
We cannot stop helping, it's just so fun!
So in comes KOV in 2017... We wanted to be able
to do more throughout the year by going into the
hospitals and doing fun activities with the kids. We
had an ice cream party for them where Jess, from
Devil May Care Ice Cream donated all the ice
cream and the kids loved it! Our buddy, Gary
Martin, dressed up like a pirate and we served up
scoop after scoop!
Wendy Russell, Leslie Breitsprecher and I all
painted faces and played Halloween games with
the kids one day with the Spirit Halloween
Crew.
We've just purchased a really cool projector and
screen and plan on doing Movie afternoons at UC
Davis for the kids and parents waiting on test
results... We hope this will help them pass the time
a little better. Stay tuned, there is so much more
to come...
Shannon McCabe, President
UPDATE 12/31- We feel we ended our first year
with a BANG! We were very pleased to partner
with the Crawfish and Catfish Festival who made
us an awesome $3000 donation for helping them
out! We started a great plan for 2018 and bought
some really cool stuff to take to the hospitals...
stay tuned!
UPDATE 11/26- Shannon here, so we are up to 5
Ipads now, a Yamaha piano and 2 "treasure
chests" for the kids, full of so much costume
jewelry and treasures... The kids LOVED these.. If
you have any costume jewelry you don't want, we
would LOVE to give it to the kids!
UPDATE 9/25-Our World's Greatest Ice Cream
Social and our donation from the Crawfish Festival
helped us to raise enough profit to purchase 5
iPads and we also got an electric piano donated!
We are collecting the iPads and buying kid proof
cases for them as often as possible! We'll keep
you updated...
Why are we raising money?
Our mission for2017 is to purchase as many IPads
as we can wrangle for the kids at UC Davis
Children's Hospitals and Shriner's of Northern CA.
The Ipads make lying in bed less boring, the touch
screen helps with dexterity, and they are just all-
around fun. So help us out if you are able! We
sure do appreciate your donation!
