Kids in Parks Named Among "Best of the Bay" by San Francisco Magazine

In the latest "Best of the Bay" issue from San Francisco Magazine, Kids in Parks was named one of the top children's charities in the Bay Area by child psychologist Sabrina "Dr. Suj" Gabel. Dr. Gabel commented:

“Their mission is to help underprivileged kids understand and connect with nature. San Francisco has so much natural beauty, so it’s really important that kids take a break from the fluorescent lights. Going on an overnight camping trip, visiting an organic farm, and learning about native Bay Area plant life are not only enriching, but can also teach really valuable skills.” Read the full article here.
