DPSS - TOY LOAN CENTER OPENS AT LANGDON AVE. ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
DPSS Toy Loan Program representatives will be joined by Jessica Orellana, District Field Deputy for Los Angeles County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl and Parent Teachers Association volunteers to open a new Toy Loan Center for students at Langdon Avenue Elementary School in North Hills. The school is one of the Los Angeles Unified District campuses with the highest percentage of homeless students. Supervisor Kuehl’s Deputy Orellana will be returning to Langdon Avenue Elementary School, where she attended as a youth.
Toy Loan Program is a voluntary community effort supported by the Board of Supervisors. The program was created in 1935 as a free service to allow children to borrow toys from a DPSS Toy Lending Library in the same manner that books are borrowed from a library. Children who participate develop a sense of responsibility through the observance of an honor code and merit system that rewards them when toys are returned on time and undamaged. Currently, the program supplies toys to over 54 centers throughout L.A. County.
