Cargo for Kids

Cargo for Kids Cargo for Kids is a non-profit initiative that provides backpacks and school supplies to homeless children in the Independence, Missouri School District.

Homeless children face obstacles and distractions that affect their potential to thrive in school. Lack of a stable home environment impacts a child's academic, emotional, and behavioral development. However, with early intervention, these effects can be minimized or possibly even reversed. Cargo for Kids is five years into the journey to assist school children in our community who find themselves

without a place to call home. It is gratifying to witness the benefit local students are receiving through the efforts of the Independence School District and numerous community partners. Last year, Cargo for Kids provided basic school supplies and essential personal items for approximately 1,000 children. During the 2014-2015 school year, the Independence School District estimates another 1,000 homeless children will require assistance. The need within our community continues to grow and to meet it, we need your help.
