Drop off Dinner:
Dinner Donations cut food bills and free up counselors to spend much needed quality time with our residents. Dinner donations involve dropping off a complete dinner (protein, vegetable & a starch) for 13 – 15 people, (per house).  Some individuals prepare dinner and drop it off at the Agency, others prefer to purchase dinner from a local restaurant/pizzeria and have it delivered.  Contact Kristen Tomasiewicz at ktomasiewicz@kidsincrisis.org for more information and to schedule a dinner donation.

Thank you for your generosity!
