CRESTVIEW — The Crestview Exchange Club's mountain of paper products that members donated to Children in Crisis will serve the nonprofit well.
After all, the donated items are one of the most used items in caring for the children, and every little bit helps, CIC president and CEO Ken Hair said.
“We have been blessed with great support from the community to build the CIC Neighborhood," Hair said. "However, it’s a struggle to find the necessary funding and supplies to sustain operations of our foster homes.
"Support from the Crestview Exchange Club is a tremendous help in our efforts to provide a safe haven to the abused, neglected and abandoned children that don’t have a home.”
The Exchange Club is a national organization that focuses on reinforcing American values, building leaders for tomorrow, and protecting America’s children from harm.
The CIC Neighborhood has an emergency shelter for children removed without notice from an unsafe environment, family foster homes for young children and two teen transition homes for foster children aging out of care.
