Imagine starting school without pencils or notebooks.

Sadly, this is a reality for many K-12 students across the country. Teachers are often left to fill this gap, digging into their own pockets, spending an average of $750 a year on supplies.

KinderCare and Kids In Need Foundation want to change that. And, we need your help. A simple $25 donation (which we’ll match up to $20,000) provides one student with the essential supplies to confidently start their school year.
