Over 1000 local children received a Box of Basics in 2022!

The first Boxes of Basics were delivered to two local foster children a little girl (6T) and boy (3T) in the Fall of 2018.   Because of the support of our community we have been able to deliver over 1500 Boxes of Basics to local children in need!

"I just wanted to give a shout out to  Boxes Of Basics. This organization has blessed my community of Georgetown South multiple times, but most recently with summer clothes for 61 children . These kids are strutting these clothes this week at our Kids' Day Camp. They're walking tall and proud thanks to Box of Basics and all who support it!" Community Director, Georgetown South

"The mom was very happy with the amount of clothes that you brought. It looks like for the immediate future she will be a single parent so I know she is worried about running out of clean clothes for the baby and you took care of that for her. She kept saying that it was so much more than she expected. She was also very happy to see the quality of the clothes, everything was so new and fresh for her baby boy. She loved all of the items; she likened it to a baby shower. I can’t give you any suggestions for changes because this “Box of Basics” was perfect. I am as appreciative as the mom is for this help that you gave to her. I love this concept. It will bring relief to so many moms. I hope we get to partner together in the future." 

"Thank you SO much for the Boxes of Basics for “A” and “C”.  We did receive them and “A” is wearing one of the shirts from there today.  Having them dropped off at our house was amazingly convenient and I am most grateful.  As for the things in the boxes, they were beautifully packaged and the clothes were truly wonderful.  The stuff was very nice and it was really nice to get play clothes as well as dress clothes, etc.  The way each stack was wrapped with a note on it as to what it was, was not only very nice but we let “A” open each package and to her it felt like opening presents so she was extremely excited.  The clothes were very nice, much of what was in the box I would have purchased for my own daughter in a store if I'd seen it."

" We are truly impressed not only with the service you are providing, but how nicely package it was.  I truly think “A” felt like she was opening presents - she even referred to them that way."

"As a public school teacher, my job is to make sure my kids have what they need to be successful. This includes showing them love and support both inside and outside of the classroom. When one of my students did not show up on the first day of school, I was worried. I soon discovered my student and her brother weren’t able to attend because they didn’t have any clothes that fit. My heart broke for these children and their mother. I reached out to Boxes of Basics and they responded immediately and said they could help!  The clothes they provided were truly a lifesaver!  From the bottom of my heart, thank you! "
