Assistance League of San Bernardino is a nonprofit organization whose volunteers enrich the lives of children in need by providing school clothing and offering general dentistry. Chartered in 1947, Assistance League of San Bernardino is a chapter of National Assistance League® and is dedicated to serving children in need in our community.
Assistance League of San Bernardino’s two philanthropies are Operation School Bell ® and the Dr. Earl R. Crane Children’s Dental Health Center. Over 250 children in the San Bernardino City Unified School District receive new school clothing thanks to volunteers that assisted children in picking out clothing at a local store. Sometimes it is the first time the children have ever had brand new clothing and shoes. The dental center provides dental treatment to hundreds of children throughout the year. Assistance League® volunteers visit all kindergarten classrooms in the SBCUSD and assist in the presentation of oral hygiene instruction. Last year over 4,000 children were instructed and given dental hygiene kits.
The chapter begins its 69th year serving San Bernardino and surrounding communities including Highland with their first chapter meeting Monday, September 14 at 6 p.m. at their chapter house located at 580 West 6th St. San Bernardino. Those interested in becoming members are also welcome to attend the meeting.
