Family & Children's Association

2024 is our 3rd year working with Family & Children's Association to bring support and joy to families in our community. It brings me so much joy to come together as a Festo USA community to give back to our local community. Thank you Paige O’Brien for being a wonderful coordinator! Thank you Family & Children's Association for all you do for our community! Thank you Women @ Festo for another great event - it's always wonderful working with you all! Thank you to all my colleagues who donated or came to wrap gifts with us!

Thank you Flagstar Bank for the $25K grant which will go towards the Family & Children's Association Lullaby Project in partnership with the Long Island Children's Museum!

The 12-month program is set to start making beautiful music in January 2025. 🎶🎼🎵

Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, KeyBridge Smiles, LLC will have delivered 400,000 packages. These were my favorites. So appreciative of the critical work done by and unstoppable energy of the Family & Children's Association team. Many thanks to Paige O’Brien for the opportunity to lend a hand (and a van😀).
