KYLEE’S KARE KITS FOR KIDZ WANTS TO INVITE YOU TO BE A PART OF GIVING TUESDAY

We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals. Now, we have GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday, December 1, 2015, charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.

It’s a simple idea. Just find a way for your family, your community, your company or your organization to come together to give something more. Then tell everyone you can about how you are giving. Join us and be a part of a global celebration of a new tradition of generosity.

If you are able to give this year, please consider giving to Kylee’s Kare Kits for Kidz, Inc, a 501(c)(3) non-profit founded in Leominster, Massachusetts in 2012 by then ten year old Kylee McCumber. Kylee and her team currently provide kare kits of food to almost 300 children every week. These are food insecure children who would go hungry over the weekends or when they are not in school. We would greatly appreciate your considering making a donation to our mission to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry.

You can donate directly on our website at kyleeskarekitsforkidz.org or by mailing a check to:

Kylee’s Kare Kits for Kidz, Inc 68 Main Street #564 Leominster, MA 01453.

No donation is too small. Every dollar counts! All donations are tax deductible! For every $5 that is donated we are able to provide a child with a kare kit of food. Wouldn’t it be nice to know that your donation prevented a child from going to bed hungry tonight?

Thank you for considering helping us to help the children.

Happy Holidays!!

Kylee and the kare kits team

FOURTH ANNUAL HOLIDAY MISSION FOR THE KARE KITS KIDZ HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN

With the holidays quickly approaching we have begun our fourth annual holiday mission to provide holiday gifts to all of our kidz! If a family is struggling with providing food for their family they certainly will struggle with gifts for the holidays. We would like to do what we can to make the holidays a bit brighter for the children.We currently have 295 children on our list from toddlers through high school students!!

If you would like to be a part of this wonderful annual event please reach out to us through Facebook or to our email at kyleeskarekitsforkidz1@gmail.com. We currently have tags for each child spread throughout the city. We would like to thank the following businesses for putting up trees with our childrens tags. They are:

About Face Salon & Day Spa 285 Central Street Leominster

Crossfit EXP 100 Crawford Street Leominster

Dr. Timothy Gallagher 54 Williams Street Leominster

Manestream Day Spa 10 Prospect Street Leominster

The Claw Shop 1123 Central Street Leominster

Worker's Credit Union North Main Street Watertower Plaza Leominster

Worker's Credit Union 881 Merriam Ave Twin City Plaza Leominster

Please stop by and take a tag or feel free to drop off toys or clothing that we would then be able to give to a child in need. We can use hats, mittens, pajamas, sweatshirts, socks, or any other items you may like to donate. We will need all donations back by Friday, December 11th so that we have time to prepare the gifts to be delivered to the children. Thank you very much for helping us to make the holidays brighter for our kidz!! It is so much better to give than to receive!!

Happy Holidays,
