Emergency Fund
Designed to provide financial assistance for “special emergency” (for example, immediate short-term) assistance for purposes/items which would not qualify under the other funding criteria.
Education Fund
Designed to assist disadvantaged youth with funding support for post-secondary education. Each school will determine students in need.
Winter Wear Program
It’s not hard to imagine a cold winter’s day. But imagine a child whose family can’t afford a warm winter coat or snow boots. Now, imagine you have the power to do something to help that child. Each year, Campaign for Kids sponsors a Winter Wear Program, trying to outfit as many children in need in Kings County.
For just $100 to outfit an elementary school student, or $150 for a middle schooler, you can provide warmth this winter.
