Since 2019, Care for Kids has been a pillar of support for local children in need, successfully collecting over 4,200 coats through our annual Coat Drive. As a philanthropic hub and collaborative giving platform, our mission is to enhance the lives of children by uniting mission-minded individuals and companies with effective local charities. We recognize the limitations of resources and strive to create the most substantial impact possible by pooling and strategically allocating donations.
Our dedicated team works closely with nonprofit leaders and social service experts to pinpoint and support organizations that focus on the needs of children. Through research and selection, we ensure that our pooled donations and grants are directed to where they can make a significant difference. By partnering with Care for Kids, individuals, companies, and foundations can amplify their charitable efforts, ensuring that every contribution delivers a profound and far-reaching impact.
