Emergency Shelter Donations Make A Difference |
|
|
|
In January, a generous donor wanted to host a donation drive to help meet our most urgent needs. In February, Cornerstones of Care opened an emergency shelter to serve children in Kansas City, Kansas, who need an urgent placement at any hour of the day.
This donor collected all items necessary for everyday living in the emergency shelter – from mops, brooms, and soap to nightlights, comfortable clothing, and toiletries. With the generous support of donors like you, we are able to offer valuable programs and support to our children and families.

Chicktime’s mission encourages women to develop their passions and use their gifts to make the world a better place for the next generation. Chicktime volunteers visit the Ozanam Campus once a month and interact with the girls by doing something fun and interactive. This past Saturday, they made bracelets and necklaces.

We had an amazing turnout of volunteers for Savor the Sound, where we raised money for our Build Trybe program. Thank you to the volunteers who showed up to help with coat check, check-in, registration, and various other tasks to help us have a successful event. |

Our Most Critical Need:
Pillows, Towels, and More
|
We have reopened the emergency shelter for children ages 6-18 on the Ozanam Campus. The youth are from the Kansas foster care system and do not have another placement option that is safe for them. They are often entering foster care for the first time and may not have many personal items with them. |
- Pillows
- Towels
- Underwear (all sizes)
- Joggers
- Bras
