Join EXIT in Feeding Local Children!


Give us $5….we’ll match your $5!

EXIT Coastal Real Estate Pros will be raising money to benefit Help4Kids – Backpack Buddies in order to help feed our children of Horry County. Our goal is to raise $5000 between now and May 20th, and EXIT Realty Corp. has committed to match the funds we raise up to $5,000.  That’s potentially $10,000!

Here is what the organization has to say:

We are a 100% volunteer organization and we are a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Donations may be tax exempt according to your financial status.  These are some of the ways we help the kids:

Help4Kids

Book bag filled with school supplies when school starts.

A week’s worth of clothing and a pair of shoes as needed.

Blankets and sleeping bags to provide warmth in the winter due to lack of heat.

Hygiene products

Winter coat, hat and gloves

Reading books

Birthday cake (made & donated by volunteers)

Easter baskets (packaged & donated by volunteers & organizations)

Gifts at Christmas time (donated by volunteers & organizations)


BACKPACK BUDDIES

Research shows that hungry children have poorer mental and overall health, miss more days of school, suffer greater rates of behavioral disorders and are less prepared to learn when they are in school.

During the 2004 school year, Backpack Buddies was piloted and distributed food to approximately 300 children every Friday. After a successful first year, Backpack Buddies is now well into its twelfth year and has expanded the program from three to 29 schools!  We are now making and delivering almost 3,000 food packs per week!

With goals of helping to eliminate these life-changing effects of the children in Horry County, Backpack Buddies supplies participating schools with nutritious, child-friendly, self-serve food designed to put in a backpack and feed a child over the weekend.

We have experienced so much success with the backpack program and have seen tremendous strides in the lives of our children. Parents have expressed their appreciation and it is so exciting to see the faces of the children when their backpacks are given to them…it is a phenomenal thing to witness.

We have seen changes in both attitudes and work habits – what a difference this program has made.

Please help us support this very important organization, the children need our help!

They are our future!

Thank you, EXIT Coastal Real Estate Pros

Note: 100% of the proceeds collected, minus the GoFundme charges will be donated.
