Happy Birthday To Us in 2010! In 1910 a local businessman named Henry J. Kuns and his wife presented to the then Women’s Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, seventeen and one-half acres of land and an old hotel in La Verne to be used as an orphanage for children. The gift was a memorial to their deceased son and Mr. Kuns’ father and mother, for whom it was named David & Margaret. Little did he, or the thousands of children, youth and families since served visualize that David & Margaret Youth and Family Services will be Celebrating a Century of Caring in 2010! Keep watching our website for upcoming celebration activiites for 2010! Notes Of Love 2009 With your valued assistance and the proceeds from our successful event, we continue to help keep families intact, prevent the physical and mental bruises of family violence, abuse and neglect, enhance our art therapy programs and aid our students with their school studies while preparing them to become independent and successful members of society.
