What is Just 4 Kids?

Just 4 Kids is a community outreach program based on situation and circumstance which works year round to assist the daily lives of ALL children in hardship situations which include:

  *  illness homelessness
  *  loss of a parent
  *  poor family financial situations. 

The program is a free resource for teachers and will provide any child in a hardship situation with new school supplies, new clothing, new hygiene items and or whatever is deemed necessary by the teacher. 

Who Benefits?

Just 4 Kids serves all children in hardship situations, county-wide and year-round, by providing them with tangible items such as NEW clothing, school supplies and hygiene products as well as items for special events such as homecoming, prom and graduation. 

Each year over 4,000 Monroe County children are served by the program.  More that 2500 children are served  with grade-appropriate school supplies, new backpacks filled with grade-appropriate school supplies, new school clothing and new hygiene items.  An additional 650+ children receive gifts and new clothing to help them celebrate the holidays. Between the “Adopt a Classroom” program and the Just 4 Kids “Keeping Our Kids Fit” program, all children's needs ARE met and no teacher should experience an out-of-pocket expense.
