Give Kids Tools for School!
CAC makes it easy to help local children this summer. Give to CAC’s Tools for School campaign and help prepare students for the start of school with the tools they need to learn! Through CAC you give 2 for the price of one when you donate to Tools for School. Your donation of $35 provides for 2 backpacks filled with school supplies thanks to the power of wholesale purchasing! In addition, every dollar donated will be matched by an anonymous donor up to $10,000! Don’t miss this opportunity to make a difference in a child’s life. Give to CAC’s Tools for School and help 1,000 local children be prepared to learn for the next academic year! Donate online for Tools for School at www.ourcac.org/toolsforschool.
Feed Local Kids this Summer
Don’t let local children go hungry this summer. With CAC you can provide summer lunches for children who may otherwise go without. Summers can be stressful for families on tight budgets due to increased costs for childcare and food for children who get free lunches at school. A CAC Summer Lunch Bag helps families by providing children with free lunches for a week. A Summer Lunch Bag contains 5 kid-friendly lunches and costs about $35. Visit the CAC website at www.ourcac.org for a lunch bag list of contents. Pack a Summer Lunch Bag, give items from the list or make a donation online, either way helps local children in need!
