Bulk food:

Due to our amazing community support, KID is stocked with pasta, canned corn, ramen noodles, and a variety of canned beans and soup, enough to last through the year.

To avoid overstock & expiring of these products, please limit the generous food donations to items we are still in need of, such as: canned pastas like ravioli & spaghetti-os, canned peas, canned carrots, individually wrapped snacks, juice boxes, bottled water, and cereals.

Thanks for your support in feeding our children!

  • Sports drinks (Gatorade)
  • Bottled water (small bottles-like “Aquapods”)
  • Individually wrapped snacks (chips, crackers, fruit cups, granola bars, etc.)

*We prefer NEW items only. Many of the children in our care come to us with nothing of their own. Providing them with NEW clothing and toys make them feel special and can help with self-esteem. We feel this is important and they can take these belongings them when they leave. During the most difficult time in their lives this small gesture of caring and comfort can have a huge impact. Thank you!

 

Significant campus needs:

KID prides itself on being safe, compliant and presentable at all times. Regular wear & tear as well as new laws and standards require some updating on campus:

  • Re-surface the “Water Whale” at the preschool: 5K
  • Re-floor the Board Room: 5K
  • Shade structures for the playgrounds: 20K

 

We look forward to partnering with you!
