Current Needs Update

Thanksgiving Food

When we distribute fully cooked/flash frozen meals to our families in need we also give them a hygiene bag with shampoo, conditioner, soap, toothpaste, toothbrush and deodorant. 

CURRENT NEED:  toothpaste, toothbrush and deodorants (400 of each)

Drive items need to be in by: November 14^th

 

When families come to pick up their boxes, we often see as many as 30-40 children who are unrestrained or improperly restrained.  We are also looking for donations of booster seats and convertible car seats.  These donations must be NEW because of liability.  We will have a local agency to instruct parents on installation and have them sign a waiver before receiving the car seats, but that agency can NOT provide us with the car seats.

CURRENT NEED: 30 booster seats 15 convertible car seats

Drive items need to be in by: November 14th

 

Winter Wonderland

This is our holiday gift program for families in need.  We provide Kyrene families in need with two new toys per child in the home (ages 0-17).  We expect to serve more families in need this year than last year.  Last year we served over 800 children.  We rely on the community to host drives and donate new toys and gift cards for this event.

CURRENT NEED:  collection drives for new toys, we ALWAYS need more middle school and older kids gifts.

Drive items need to be in by: December 12^th

 

Please contact kfvolunteer@cox.net  if you are planning to host a drive, have questions or would like to make a donation.
