KMS Sponsors 245 Children Around the World!
Believing that education, clean water, and health care are key to breaking the cycle of poverty, KMS has always been a big supporter of child sponsorships.
World Vision and Compassion offer a path to self-sustainability for children around the world and their entire communities by partnering with them to better their agriculture, education, business training, sanitation, and more!
This year we’ve expanded our support to an additional 145 kids! With a total of 245 child sponsorships, we’ll now be giving $117,588 annually to defeat poverty!
Why the Smokies?
In years that are less strange, all KMS locations offer free smokies and pop during the monthly 3 Day Sales. What’s that about?
Well, a few things! Who doesn’t crave a steaming hot smokie fresh off the grill, smothered in fried onions, and lightly kissed by ketchup and mustard? It’s one of the ways that we show our customers that we appreciate them.
But MORE IMPORTANTLY, the friendly faces you see behind the BBQs are volunteers for a myriad of non-profit organizations! They dedicate their weekends to raising awareness and funds for causes that are dear to their hearts.
Tools for the World : A Look At 2020
2020 came with its challenges, felt throughout the entire globe. Tools for the World and our partner organization- Compassionate Resource Warehouse also felt the pandemic’s effects, with a greatly reduced number of hours that volunteers were able to prepare items for shipping, as well as additional challenges in clearing and distribution.
Despite these setbacks, we were still able to send out 42 pallets of tools to 12 countries!
