Happy Birthday Cha Cha Cha

National Underwear Day!!!

Did you know this was a thing?!? I promise I did not make it up, but we are definitely going with it!!

See message from a teacher who had a student ask her for underwear. I’ve shared this before but it breaks my heart each time I think of it. Can you imagine the shame and desperation that child felt ?

We can do something about this.
Show me the skivvies!!

Week Six: Middle School Food

The middle schoolers in our program have told teachers that there is not a lot of food at their homes and they are more likely to have access to a microwave vs an oven/ stove.
That is why we make sure we provide a variety of food items that they can make easily on their own.

Instant Oatmeal
Mac n Cheese Cups
Raman
Microwave popcorn
Kind Bars
And Gum

Can you help us make sure these kids have food on their birthdays?

Week Five: Toothpaste/ Toothbrushes

Did you know oral health issues / tooth pain is one of the top reasons kids from low-income families miss school? And that low income families sometimes share toothbrushes?

That’s why we provide all 3,000+ kids in our program with toothpaste and multiple toothbrushes.

Can you help us help them to have healthy and beautiful smiles?
