We need your help. Eastside Domestic Violence Program (EDVP) has fallen short on the needs of kids in their shelters.

We need 50 more backpacks filled with school supplies. These kids have nothing except what we raise for them. It's bad enough to live in a shelter but for them to have to return to school without supplies should not happen in our community.

EDVP has a drop-off container located at The Game Neighborhood Grill, 13510 100th Ave. N.E. in Kirkland. Please help me help these kids. Thank you.

Bill Henkens, Kirkland
