Kids In Need Foundation is a nonprofit whose mission is to ensure that every child is prepared to learn and succeed in the classroom.

With a focus on schools with 70% or more students participating in the National School Lunch Program, KINF ensures that under-resourced students and teachers have access to what they need to succeed. Through their network of over 40 well-established resource centers across the country, KINF has provided over $1 billion in school supplies since 1995.
