Review for www.kkidsinc.org, North Ft Myers, FL, USA
I have known Karen and Bruce Scott since 1991 and have watched their family take in dozens and dozens of youth that are at risk. They sacrifice their time and their money helping so many children in their neighborhood. When they find out about other families with children struggling to find a motel room or an apartment to get off the street, they have stepped in to make it happen. I see daily post from Karen advocating these needs and making them be fulfilled. When I was struggling as a single grandfather raising my five grandchildren alone, they helped me out with a cash donation to help us. I have donated furniture and miscellaneous items to their ministry of Kids Inc and they have picked up the items and sold them or income or donated them to families in need of furniture, beds, mattresses, lamps, linens and beddings, etc. They have changed so many lives and rescued so many children and they do not receive funds from the state of Florida while they do for these many many children what their parents should be doing. They provide them food and shelter, safe accommodations that are drug-free, and most of all love and attention that every child wants. They live in a small rental house in North Fort Myers with a dozen family members crammed in and they desperately need to be provided with a large home in a safe neighborhood with a yard for these children and their friends to play in and not on a very busy dangerous street. I have been praying with them for many years that God will touch people's hearts and the home will be provided for them because they sacrifice and do what honestly I think no one else that I know or have met would ever do. Me raising my five grandkids pales in comparison to what they do for three times the amount of kids.
