Generous Donors Give Children in Need a Helpful Start to the School Year

Each year KVC reaches out to local businesses and groups to help supply the children and families we serve with new school supplies. Because of the outpouring of generosity, this year we were able to make sure every child is starting the new school year ready to learn with new backpacks, pencils, crayons, folders, glue, pens and more!
KVC Kansas serves over 12,000 children in Kansas and provides services in foster care, family preservation, reintegration, adoption and more. Through KVC’s partnership with the Kansas Department for Children and Families, 1,030 Kansas children were safely reunited with their 635 families after foster care last year. We are proud to play a role in strengthening Kansas families and coming alongside them during their time of crisis.
There’s still time to help children start the school year off right. Donate money and supplies to your local office today!
Thank you to all the individuals, businesses and groups who helped make sure every child has the right supplies for this school year!
