The Kearney Family Foundation is reaching out to Kearney School District families who need help as well as families who would like to provide assistance through the Adopt-A-Family program this year.

The foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation founded in November 2003 as a community volunteer organization dedicated to assisting the children and families in the Kearney/Holt area. Every penny donated – 100 percent of all donations – goes directly to those children and families that the foundation helps.

Every year since its launch, the Kearney Family Foundation has assisted between 120-150 Kearney families during the holidays. Kearney teachers and staff always step up to help with this drive.

To Request Help from Kearney Family Foundation, please complete the family request help form on the KFF website at www.kearneyfamilyfoundation.org/request-help by Monday, Nov. 15.

To help others through the Adopt-A-Family program this year and provide gifts and clothing, please sign-up on the KFF website at www.kearneyfamilyfoundation.org/how-to-help2 by Wednesday, Dec. 1. Scroll down to and complete the “Interested in Adopting a Family or Individual?” form. Please include your budget so that KFF can pair you with a family size that will meet your resources.
