There are more than 1,000 foster kids living in Snohomish County. These kids are in the system because of an ongoing crisis in their family.
They need your help. Right now, the most pressing need is for school supplies. So, HELP US HELP THEM!When you come for the ride, bring some school supplies for a foster child. You can bring it in a bag or, if you prefer, grab a small school-size backpack & fill it with the items listed on the back of this page. The more that ride, the more we can give!
Here’s the info:
What: Ride to benefit Foster Kids in Snohomish County
