WHAT: Grand Opening New Cathedral City Store Location

 

WHEN: Saturday, January 23, 9 a.m. – 6 p.m

 

WHERE: Angel View Cathedral City, 67625 E. Palm Canyon Drive, 

 

Angel View is moving its Cathedral City resale store from its previous location on E. Palm Canyon Drive near Date Palm to a new building at 67625 E. Palm Canyon Drive. The new building is twice the size of the old Cathedral City store and provides space for administrative offices and programs.

 

The grand opening will be held on Saturday, January 23 and will include a ribbon cutting, hourly drawings for gift certificates as well as a grand prize giveaway of a flat screen TV.

 

Angel View’s resale stores accept over 3 million pounds of donated material each year that is then resold, reused or recycled.  Proceeds from the sale of the donated items will be used to provide a wide range of essential services to children and adults with disabilities who live in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

JESUS’ STORY

Jesus, 23, has cerebral palsy and a seizure disorder. Once he completed his special education classes, his parents, who both work full-time, needed a place where he could continue to grow. He started our Day Program 10 months ago.

He was shy when he first arrived and prone to speaking one word answers. So we were thrilled to see him open up and use full sentences when he responds to staffers like Hope, whom he clearly adores. Jesus participates in all activities. He knows the routine and where he’s supposed to be. When it’s time to leave, he grabs his bag, waits for him mom, and looks forward to coming back.
