My name is Kira Andreucci, for my 11th birthday I asked for money to start Karing 4 Kidz, a project to help food insecure children. I made kidpacks for 10 kids to take home on Fridays and delivered them each week with the help of my parents. This is our 15th year helping 200 children in 4 Fitchburg Elementary Schools and a chapter of Blessings in a Backpack a 501c3. I'm now in college and working in the medical field and proud to say Karing 4 Kids continues its mission.

New Kidz Added
Even now this far into the school year we are still asked to help additional kids. They may be new kids that just came into one of our schools or kids that were just now found and need help. We will never say NO. This child may be in a greater need than any one we are currently helping. This week in the food packs, as a snack, we gave oreo cookies, they were on sale for the first time this school year. One school reported that the kids acted as if it were Christmas. Hearing this reminds me how fortunate I am, and with little effort what my team and I can do to help the lives of others. Some people asked me how can someone your age do that, I just think how can I not.....Kira
