BACK TO SCHOOL - WOOHOO!!
Kindred Heart Families, Inc will be holding our 8th Annual Back to School Bash.
We are inviting all Foster Children, Kinship Children, Grandchildren being raised by Grandparents, and Adoptive Families.
Join us August 23rd at the former Immanuel Lutheran School at 1626 Illinois Avenue Sheboygan. As in the past, families will need to register on our website for a time slot, each time slot is limited to 15 families, when a time slot is full, we will remove it from the registration form.
Each registered child will receive a backpack full of the recommended school items, per items donated. This year we are hoping to have new shoes available for each registered child as well, but that will depend on the amount donated.
We will also have some new clothing available on a limited basis. But all our regulars will be there… you will be able to select unlimited gently used clothing, shoes, toys, bedding and feeding items, bath, diapering items and more. We will be changing over our summer items for fall and winter for this giving event.
Kindred Heart Families relies solely on donations to bring these giving events to our foster families. At times we may see an abundance of certain sizes, items, etc. Please be patient with all our volunteers as they serve you with the amazing items that we do have. Also, if you do not register clothing or shoe size for your registered children, there will not be any of those items available for them.
