Our mission is that no child shall be kept out of school for lack of adequate clothing. We’re dedicated to clothing Franklin County schoolchildren in need. We provide brand new clothing to children in need in Franklin County from K through 12th grade. Since our founding in 1907, Charity Newsies has served over 800,000 kids. Our mission is that no child shall be kept out of school for lack of adequate clothing. Each child receives a package of clothing worth $150. Each child will receive a brand new clothing package consisting of six pairs of socks, underwear for the week, a coat, hat, gloves and three shirts and three pants. Should the child attend a school with a dress code, dress code compliant clothing will be provided. Children attending schools with a uniform with a logo will receive a full clothing package along with a voucher to use at a local uniform store for the items requiring a specific logo. We serve 18,000 children a year
