2. ABOUT ADVOCATES FOR KIDS
We are a not-for-profit non-denominational foundation
providing necessary resources for specific projects
that support the welfare of children valley wide.
Based in Phoenix, Arizona, we are dedicated to
looking for ways to “fill the gaps” for children only,
with food, clothing and other essentials. We work
with local agencies, social workers and schools
who have exhausted the traditional resources and
still have families in need.
3. WHO DID YOU SERVE & WHAT DID YOU
ACCOMPLISH THAT DAY?
We served the families that are being overseen by
HRT (see next slide) providing gifts and goods
for their holiday season thru a Christmas gift
drive.
Throughout the year we provide a “leg up” to
these families until they get their feet on the
ground. We do this by providing basic
necessities such as: hygiene and household
products, diapers, wipes, clothing, shoes,
socks, kitchen items, cribs, strollers and beds.
4. WHAT IS YOUR TEAM’S PLAN FOR AN ONGOING
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE NONPROFIT?
Our non profit mainly supports families
that are taken on by Human Resource
Training in Tempe, AZ – a division of
Child Protective Services. We’ve
established a good relationship with
them over the past few years and as
Program Manager I communicate with
them weekly and provide goods for
families in need.
5. WHAT WOULD YOUR NONPROFIT DO IF THEY
WON PART OF THE PRIZE MONEY?
Each summer we provide new school
uniforms, shoes, socks, backpacks and supplies for over
75 kids. At Christmas, Advocates for Kids facilitates a
Christmas Adoption Program where we match generous
sponsors with needy families.
Winning the prize money would allow our program to
continue and help more children! This year we were able
to adopt half the number of families we could last year for
Christmas and funds could help others have a blessed
holiday.
