AboutServing Kids Clothing Program is a program sponsored by Jeffco Schools Foundation, working together with Jeffco PTA, Jefferson County Administrators Association and community donors to make almost-new clothing items available to Jefferson County Public School students in need. Staffed by volunteers, the Serving Kids program provides a week's worth of new or near-new clothing, including jeans, coats, shoes and more, to any student in Jeffco Public Schools who needs it.
ImpactSometimes a student's biggest obstacle to being successful may be as basic as the lack of appropriate or warm clothing to wear to school. School personnel are usually the first to recognize the need. Clothing is delivered to the employee, who then gives it to the student. Serving Kids volunteers act behind the scenes to allow caring employees the joy of making their students happy.
In September 2022 alone, 196 schools made requests for clothing and 8,505 items of clothing were provided. This semester, 398 bags of clothing have been delivered to Jeffco children. |
