Pasco Kids First relies, in part, on contributions from individuals and other community partners to accomplish the many different actions we take to help the kids and families in the communities we serve. Even the smallest contribution can make a big difference when there are many small gifts that can be added together to do great things. You can be assured that any gift, of any size, will be appreciated and handled with the utmost of care and respect. Thanks.
