Lou Seal visits Holy Family Day Home
This holiday season, Lou Seal donned his Santa cap and visited the Holy Family Day Home in San Francisco's Mission District. Lou Seal and the children of Holy Family Day Home had an exciting morning of games and dancing.

Holy Family Day Home, San Francisco's oldest early educational childhood center, has provided affordable day care and education to the children of working families in San Francisco for over 100 years. This "home away from home" offers children a stable and nurturing environment where teachers help children develop positive self-esteem and a foundation for continued learning.
