Basics for Kids<br />
To benefit the 15th District Parent Teacher Association’s Clothing<br />
Assistance Program<br />
Basics for Kids is a campaign to purchase new uniform clothing for students<br />
in need. For more than 28 years, the 15th District Parent Teacher Association’s<br />
(PTA’s) Clothing Assistance Program (CAP) has been providing<br />
new and used clothing to JCPS students in need. Many of<br />
our community’s families face each new school year without<br />
resources to provide school clothing for their children.<br />
Kids today face many challenges, and economically disadvantaged children<br />
have incredible barriers to overcome. In fact, more than 4,000 children in our<br />
community don’t have appropriate clothes for school. Imagine the price they<br />
pay in self-esteem. Basics for Kids provides these students with school uniform<br />
pants, shirts, underwear, socks, and belts.<br />
If you are interested in supporting Basics for Kids, contributions can be made<br />
to the <strong>Jefferson</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong> Education Foundation in care of Linda Johnson,<br />
director of development, Jaeger Education Center, 502 Wood Road, Suite 201,<br />
Louisville, KY 40222.<br />
