Support for our schools starts strong with donations to Hiz Kids from local businesses and leadership.
Hiz Kidz would like to thank the Clarke County Development Corporation and the Lakeside Casino and Resort for their generous gift of $500! Hiz Kidz was excited to use these funds to purchase needed school supplies to be enjoyed by the Clarke Elementary teachers, students and staff! Our program has been blessed with continued community support. We are so thankful for all of the donations of food, supplies, volunteer time and financial support.
Hiz Kidz is eager to kick off a new year in Osceola this Fall on October 5th. Last year we served over 100 elementary students. With our continued growth we are prepared to reach even more children this year! Hiz Kidz meets weekly on Mondays at the Clarke Elementary school from 3-5:30pm. It is open to all students K-6th grade. This is a free program that provides supervision with an after school snack, activity time, music and dance time, bible message, assistance with homework, mentorship and a nutritious meal.
It is never too late to register your child with open enrollment throughout the school year! Wonderful volunteers are the key to our successful program! If you would like more information about enrollment, volunteer opportunities or how to make a donation please contact Lori Ferris, Regional Director, at 515-371-9128.
