Kids Helping Kids Pasco County recognizes the impact that kids and teens can have in their community and not only gives them the opportunity to help but gives them the opportunity to LEAD. The Teen Advisory Board of the organization leads their own meetings, plans many aspects of events, thinks thoughtfully about the needs that THEY see in the community and discusses plausible ways to meet the needs with dignity, empathy, and kindness. Michelle, the fearless founder and leader of the group, has rallied the entire community's support after bringing awareness to the very real needs of people in our own backyards. Kids Helping Kids Pasco County is supported by incredible volunteers, and amazing and generous businesses and families in our community who step up every event to help meet the needs presented so the group can continue doing what they do. They provide kids with basic necessities like food and toiletries, opportunities for fun, fitness, and learning, and some special treats and gifts around the holidays. They feel strongly about helping the families in need maintaining their pride and dignity while simultaneously making sure to give them hope that there are people out there who care and are ready and willing to help. So grateful my kids have been involved both as volunteers and on the Teen Advisory Board, so proud of all this group has accomplished in the community and so excited for all that is to come!
