Update on Car seats for Oregon families

ACTS Oregon is pleased to continue to provide children with new car seats based on donations from the Winter Challenge fundraiser.  To receive the car seats, families attend a car seat check-up event getting education on the correct adjustment of the car seat to the child and correct installation of the seat in their vehicle.

Donors included friends, families, child passenger safety technicians and families participating in car seat check-up events. We very much appreciate the efforts of our donors and volunteers keeping children riding safe in Oregon!
