Camas Lions Club Gears Up for “Heavy Helpers” Service Project!The Camas Lions Club is thrilled for the upcoming "Heavy Helpers" service project on Saturday, March 29, where volunteers will assemble weighted stuffed animals for children who need extra comfort and support. 🧸💛
📍 Where: Camas Public Library
🕛 When: 12 PM - 2 PM
This special project was inspired by Camas Lion Tammie Coelho, who recently led the successful "Photos with the Grinch" fundraiser to help cover the cost of thread, fabric, and supplies for Heavy Helpers. The Camas Lions Club is partnering with the Children’s Center, a local nonprofit providing mental health support to children in need.
🧸What Are “Heavy Helpers”?
The Children’s Center distributes hundreds of Heavy Helpers each year—large stuffed animals filled with aquarium gravel to provide weight, offering therapeutic relief similar to a weighted blanket. This idea, developed over 20 years ago by a Children’s Center psychologist, helps ease anxiety and provide comfort to children facing mental health challenges.
🦁 How You Can Help!
The community can continue to support the Heavy Helpers project and other Camas Lions charitable causes by volunteering and contributing resources.
