Welcome to Clothes & Crayons for Kids!
| Clothes & Crayons for Kids, is a faith-based community program for local children in need. It is sponsored by North Central Church of Christ and the surrounding community. This outreach program works with local school officials and social workers to identify families in need of assistance. Steve Keith, Director of Student Services for Washington Township schools, describes Clothes & Crayons for Kids as "a great asset to our community ... it has touched the loves of hundreds of our students ... 8% to 9% of our student population is now Hispanic and these demographics are growing every day. Many of these students, new to the area, start school with absolutely no supplies, or book bags or necessary clothing. Clothes & Crayons for Kids is now a significant help to these families and many other families of all sizes and colors at or below poverty level, and we are all extremely appreciative for the help offered by this outstanding faith-based community project ..." Kathy LItzkow, adds, "We have prayed for God to give us an opportunity, with the right people and the right resources to widen our ability to help more children. We need more awareness of this program, more donations, more people to become involved. We help hundreds of children each year, and there are ten times more children in this area that need our help."
