I am proud to be a board member of this organization that is dedicated to providing school supplies to students who need them most. Through teacher resource centers, the Second Responder program, School Ready Supplies program, and Teacher Supply Boxes, the Foundation helps millions each year. I am most impressed with the incredibly dedicated staff and executive director that work tirelessly to support the mission. The entire team is devoted to ensuring the youth in this country have the supplies they need to thrive in the classroom. We know that when kids have the supplies they need, they perform better in the classroom, their attendance is better, and their confidence improves. The future of this country relies on our youth, and this organization is working to ensure our students will succeed.

As a Board Member, I continue to be amazed by the intense dedication and broad talent within the Kids In Need Foundation. The genuine commitment of each staff and board member is outstanding, and they hold themselves to the highest standards in both ethical and business practices. It is clear that the mission of the Kids In Need Foundation resonates in the affiliate companies as well as the local community resource centers.

The Kids In Need Foundation is a truly wonderful organization. As a Board Member and director of an affiliate agency that is a member of their National Network of Resource Centers, I can say first hand that they are indeed changing the lives of hundreds of thousands of economically challenged students across the country who cannot afford the basic tools needed for learning every day in the classroom. Well done KINF!

Kids in Need Foundation is a magical group. When I first attended their luncheon I was taken by the unbelievable amount of appreciation for the hard work that teachers do. This was the moment that I decided I had to get involved with this group-- I am now on the Teacher Grant Board.

This is a wonderful organization that provides free school supplies to students across the US who would otherwise not be able to afford the tools needed to be successful in school. I have been a donor for many years and am always impressed each time I visit one of the Resource Centers where local area teachers can visit and "shop" for their classrooms and students. The foundation is very effective and efficient with their funding - more than 95% of every dollar donated goes towards programs! I recommend Kids in Need to family, friends and colleagues as a very worthwhile charity.
