Our Backpacks for Kids program is an ongoing program in conjunction with Clinton County Children & Youth Services that gives children who have been removed from their homes backpacks with the essentials that they may not have had time to grab before leaving, alongside books and/or other fun items such as small toys or stuffed animals. We’ve also provided backpacks to the Keystone Central School District for children in need, as well as other local organizations such as the Clinton County Housing Authority, Nurse Family Partnership, and Pregnancy Resource Clinic.
We are always accepting donations for this program. Check out the flyer below for details and contact us if you wish to make a donation or if you know of an organization that would benefit from this program.
This past Saturday, BENV Kiwanis joined Pay It Forward at Cedar Heights Brethren in Christ Church from 9–11, where Phoebe Watson and Cindy Walker hosted a Kiwanis table and passed out free books to kids. 📚
Meanwhile, Pay It Forward volunteers Noelle and Allie were busy handing out the teen hygiene bags donated by BENV Kiwanis. 🧼
It’s pretty awesome when like-minded organizations team up to help our community. When we work together, we can reach even more people and make an even bigger impact! 💙
Thank you, Pay It Forward, for letting us be part of such a great morning!
PAY IT FORWARD: This faith-based, community-driven outreach program serves as a massive goods exchange. Local families and community partners (such as STEP Head Start and the Early Learning Resource Center) participate to distribute essential baby and children's items to families facing economic hardships. ...
