Children living in poverty face innumerable difficulties. With your support this Colorado Gives Day, having clothes does not have to be one of them.
Sometimes a student's biggest obstacle to being successful may be as basic as the lack of appropriate or warm clothing to wear to school. School personnel are usually the first to recognize the need. Clothing is delivered to the employee, who then gives it to the student. Serving Kids volunteers act behind the scenes to allow caring employees the joy of making their students happy. In September 2023 alone, 222 Jeffco students received clothing. This included: 154 winter coats; 94 light coats; 178 hoodies; 677 pairs of jeans, pants or leggings; 1,011 tops; 219 pairs of shoes; 984 underwear; and 1089 pairs of socks!
