THANK YOU TO ST MARY’S PARISH IN JEFFERSON MA


For the third year St Mary’s Parish chose Kylee’s Kare Kits for Kidz as one of the local organizations that they would support during their annual Day of Caring. They sent a group of high school students and adult leaders to help us pack kare kits and to make May Baskets that will be sold as a fundraiser for our mission. They made 100 baskets that they then took back to their parish to sell for us!! Each basket will be sold for a $5 donation which will provide a child with a kare kit for a weekend.


They also presented us with a check in the amount of $808.35 which they raised during their Souper Bowl event. We greatly appreciate the donation.


We would like to thank them for their continued support of our mission to feed the children in our community.A special thanks to Father Timothy Brewer and Kerry O'Grady!! It is because of kind and generous people like all of you that we are able to help so many children.
















































THANK YOU TO PENELOPE FOR CHOOSING OUR KIDS TO BENEFIT FROM HER KINDNESS



While most children anxiously await the gifts that they will receive for their birthdays Penelope decided to put others needs before her own. Penelope learned about the food insecure children in our community when Kylee went to speak to her pre-school in Groton last year. She remembered the children as her 5th birthday was approaching and decided that she wanted to ask her friends and family to purchase food for our kids instead of buying her a gift for her birthday.



Penelope and her Mom, Danielle, recently came to deliver the food she received and to pack kare kits with us. She greatly enjoyed helping to pack the kare kits and we hope that she will come back to join us again sometime. Penelope is learning at a very young age that it is better to give than to receive. Thank you Penelope for your kindness you should be very proud of yourself!!

ST ANNA’S SCHOOL IN LEOMINSTER SUPPORTS OUR MISSION



During the month of January the students and faculty at Anna’s School in Leominster collected food for our kare kits as part of their Make A Difference Campaign as part of Pope Francis’ proclamation of a Jubilee Year of Mercy.


We would like to thank second grade teacher, Katelyn Smith, for reaching out to us and leading this food drive and encouraging the students to participate in efforts that will feed the hungry.


On February 12th they invited Kylee to come to their school to speak with their students and faculty about her mission to help the children. We were amazed by the amount of food that they collected for our kids! This donation will allow us to provide many kare kits to the kids.


Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity!! It is because of people like all of you that we can help the children!!

FALLON HEALTH DONATES TO CENTRAL MASS NON-PROFITS FOR THEIR HUNGER RELIEF INITIATIVE



We would like to thank Cheryl Schmaltz and her co-workers of Fallon Health for organizing a check presentation at our site for Central MA non-profits for Fallon's Hunger Relief Initiative. We greatly appreciate the support! The donation will allow us to provide kare kits to many children. It was very nice to meet all the other groups working to fight the hunger issues in our community.












THANK YOU TO DEEP RIVER SNACKS OF DEEP RIVER CONNECTICUT



We recently had a surprise visit from Paul Maillet of Deep River Snacks of Deep River Connecticut. Paul had heard about Kylee's mission and drove to Leominster to offer us support. He left us with samples of his chips for our kare kits. He then set up a delivery of chips as well.

Paul asked his marketing director, Samantha Magri, to reach out and she wrote an article about our mission to help the food insecure children in our community and they posted it on their website . https://deepriversnacks.com/…/who-gives-a-chip-kylees-kare…/ .

We greatly appreciate your kindness and generosity. It is because of caring people like you that we can help the children,







THANK YOU TO EVAN FOR HIS KINDNESS





Most children look forward to receiving gifts for their birthdays but not 8 year old Evan! He decided to ask his family and friends to donate food for our kidz instead of buying gifts for him for his 8th birthday! We greatly appreciate Evan's kindness. He should be very proud of himself for putting others before himself!
