PROGRAMS
Of the many programs and organizations that had their beginning with Burbank Coordinating Council we have retained only two:
CAMPERSHIPS
In 1936, with a starter fund from the Burbank Noon Kiwanis, we began the Summer Camp Program. This program allows children of lower income a week at summer resident or day-camp. Annually we send 100 to camps.
HOLIDAY BASKETS
In 1946, in coordination with The Bureau of Public Assistance, the Christmas Basket Program was created. In 1996 the name was changed to “Holiday Basket Pro-gram” We coordinate with Churches, PTAs, Studios, Individuals, Businesses, Clubs, City Offices Family Service Agency, and BTAC to provide Holiday Baskets of food and toys to low income families with school age children. We have served over 2600 people annually.
