We Exist So That No Child Will Go Without
"It takes a community to save a child." - David Pelzer
About Us
Kids In Distress Services, Inc. (KIDS) is a non-profit organization with tax exempt status whose sole mission is to help children and teens. We provide children and teens with necessary clothing and personal hygiene items when they are unexpectedly removed from their homes (i.e. entering foster care, entering a shelter, left homeless, home fires, as well as any other children/ teen in need.)
How You Can Help
If you want to support KIDS in helping children and youth who are in need of clothing and other necessities, please make a financial contribution to enable Kids In Distress Services to purchase non-recycled items such as sock, under clothing, and shoes. Your tax deductible gift will enable KIDS to continue operating and keep our warehouse stocked.
What We Do...
The KIDS concept was created to help these children and teens through a difficult transition time in their life. Within the scope of Kids In Distress Service's mission statement; "we exist so that no child will go without".
We provide sets of clothes, hats, mittens, and gloves. As well as undergarments, socks, shoes, boots, beds (as available), and age appropriate items such as deodorant, diapers, wipes, toothpaste, toothbrushes, combs, hair brushes, shampoo, and other personal hygiene items.
