About 250,000 Colorado children live below the self-sufficiency standard in A Precious Childs eight-county service area, which includes Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas, Jefferson and Weld counties. They often lack the necessary supplies critical to academic achievement. When kids have the necessary supplies to participate in school, it reduces truancy, promotes learning and builds confidence.

Last year alone, A Precious Child provided backpacks and grade-appropriate school supplies to more than 20,000 children in need. With the effect of the pandemic, children in need will need our support more than ever. The upcoming school year could look and feel a lot different for returning students. Let's work together to make sure kids have what they need to go back to school feeling confident and excited!
