Boxes of Basics - Building a Better Future
The Need We See Every Day
These are real moments shared by the teachers, counselors, and partners who reach out to us:
“A child was coming to school in the same worn, smelly clothes every day and was being bullied. When we received a Box of Basics, the family cried tears of joy.”
“A mom left a domestic violence situation and is now trying to provide for her four children on her own.”
“A family who experienced homelessness is working to get back on their feet—both parents working, but still unable to afford clothing for the new school year.”
“My students face so much—homelessness, violence, and families doing their best but struggling to provide even the basics.”
“One family had just arrived in this country with only the clothes on their backs. Boxes of Basics made a huge difference.”
“A student and her brother had been homeless. Their mom is doing everything she can, and receiving clothing lifted a huge weight off their shoulders.”
“A single mother doing her best simply couldn’t afford clothing—receiving a box brought a smile to her face.”
Because of supporters like you, when these requests come in, we’re able to respond with one powerful answer: Yes—we can help.

What Our Recipients Have To Say
"We are a family of seven and both lost our jobs. Since our 2-year-old son was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer it has made it extremely tights on an already exhausted budget. You have no idea how helpful this is for us. From the bottom of our hearts we say thank you and GOD bless you all."
"Thank you so much! I wish I would have known about you all before now! The children and I are very grateful! They were in here opening their boxes up as if it were Christmas! Thank you for making their day! Experiencing this has made me want to join in this mission!"
"It was the biggest blessing. It felt like Christmas/Birthday came early for all of them. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. We and mostly I are so thankful. Thank you again and again!"
"It was like Christmas morning. The kids put on a fashion show with each new outfit and were extremely appreciative and genuinely for their new/new to them clothes."
"Receiving the Boxes of Basics filled with individually wrapped sets of school clothes, play clothes, Sunday dress, Holiday dress, pajamas, socks, underwear and a winter coat for all three children was such an amazing blessing. The girls said it was like Christmas with all of the packages. The books were a perfect treat. Quality of outfits was amazing and matched perfectly. Definitely packed with love."
"We had four hours before our 3 month old foster daughter cam into our lives. We received a Box of Basics. It was a life saver! I almost cried opening it, everything was new or like new. We went from three outfits to having everything we could possibly need for the entire season. We truly can't thank you enough.
