The Crookston Kiwanis Club led a project to provide duffle bags and diaper bags for children coming into Foster Care. Many community members made contributions to the project.
Skip Greenberg, Greenberg Realty made a cash donation, as did Strander Guaranty and KnuteCo. Strander also donated a box of various items for the bags. United Valley Bank donated water bottles, Golden Link donated hand-sewn teddy bears for each bag.
The bags were delivered to Polk County Social Services. Megan Starr commented during the delivery that a couple of bags would be used that day as children were coming into foster care.
The bags included various items like journals, books, teddy bears, blankets, hairbrushes/comb, soap, shampoo, a mixture of activity books, and coloring books. Each bag also contained messages of encouragement from Kiwanis.
If you are still interested in providing a donation or items for the bag please contact Diane Seddon, 218-280-6736.
