CRF Children's Outreach Project

From Victim to Victor

Sign up today and become part of a year round effort of giving

In a continuing effort to reach out to children and families in crisis, we have been working with several upscale hotels and faith communities, and are working towards establishing a 12 month round “clearinghouse” of goods to be distributed to needy agencies working with homeless children, families in crisis and children impacted by violence.

Current agencies in need:

• Denver Public School System
• CHANCE
• Arapahoe Health and Human Services Department
• Denver Health and Human Services
   

Needs:

• Clothing
• Food
• Backpacks and back to school items
• Formula
• Diapers
• Workbooks for children and more.
  
  

Program Calendar for Corporations, Faith Communities and Community Groups seeking a more personal avenue for outreach to children in crisis:

Each drive would last 3-4 weeks long at a maximum, with contributors delivering and droping off goods at one central location. CRF or the receivers would pick up either weekly, or monthly. These needs change monthly, so please call to sign up before collecting.
