Caring for Kids distributed 1,255 books to ECEAP/Headstart and low income kindergarteners in celebration of Read Across America. The books were beautiful hard back Disney books valued at $15 each. Luckily Caring for Kids applied this year for the First Book National Distribution and received the books for $ .45 each. The work is labor intensive for an all volunteer organizations but the smiles on the faces of the kids are worth their weight in gold. Caring for Kids is making a difference.

Caring for Kids provides prepacked baby clothes to WIC (Women, Infants and Children), Care-Net (Crisis Pregnancy), Caring for Kids Clothing Bank and other community agencies. This program also gives high school special needs students work experience in packaging the baby clothes for distribution. If you have a donation, you can drop it off at the Clover Park main administratioin building next to Clover Park High School. This is a wonderful program with “kids helping kids” and is appreciated by our community partners.
