It's worth a ton to a kid who's stuff might otherwize be dumped in a trash bag.
Think about it...
You are seven, and child services comes to tak you away from your home, tell you to pack your stuff and hand you a trash bag.
How would you feel?
You have the chance now through Newton Young Professionals and His Hands of Hope to make a change in the process.
