Hello, KIANA fans and supporters! On Thanksgiving Day, there are many reasons to be thankful: family and friends, good health, the food we eat, and so much more. We have so much to be thankful for during this season of giving, and on behalf of KIANA, we want to express our gratitude to our private donors, friends and families, teachers and volunteers; without your support, none of these missions and programs would be possible.
The breakfast feeding program for children has been discontinued since schools closed in 2020 due to the pandemic. KIANA implemented a covid-19 relief program for household families in desperate need of assistance last December during the pandemic. Non-perishable foods and essentials such as rice, canned goods, sugar, coffee, and other items were distributed to approximately 650 household families. Our collaboration with teachers and volunteers allowed us to complete our mission while dealing with logistics, particularly health protocol during Covid-19.
In 2021, KIANA plans to repeat the Covid-19 relief program in the hopes of increasing household size. Your contributions to KIANA provide basic food and the tools their children need to succeed in school.
Many people choose to volunteer their time during Thanksgiving, and KIANA hopes to have your support and donation towards our mission in 2021.
For the upcoming year, we plan to replicate the Covid-19 relief program for families during the holiday season. When families are struggling financially, we can help them meet their most basic needs and make them feel appreciated this holiday season.
Your donation to KIANA will help families in need have a happy holiday season. Donations can be made online at www.supportkiana.org or by clicking the link below. Thank you for your contributions to KIANA's mission this year and for brightening the lives of others!
