We hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving! What are you grateful for? We at Kids Helping Needy Kids have a lot to be thankful for, as God has been very good to us this year. We are especially grateful for all of our of dedicated sponsors and their generous hearts toward children in need.
This past Saturday, November 23rd, Kids Helping Needy Kids was fortunate enough to be the recipient of a fundraising event hosted by University of Baltimore's African Student Union. For the past three years, this group has held an annual Black Tie event filled with African- themed performances as well as a presentation from the charity supported by the evening. All the proceeds from their ticket sales are donated to a charity in line with the African Student Union's theme for the year. This year, the theme was "Supporting Our Future Generation". One of our very own sponsors, Ms. Salem Henok, a student at University of Baltimore, was kind enough to recommended KHNK as the charity of the evening.
During the event, Tsige, Lulit, and Luladay spoke about the origins of KHNK, gave an overview of the work KHNK has done in the past, and highlighted some of what we plan to accomplish in the future. After the event, KHNK received an abundance of encouragement as well as monetary donations from the guests present. We would like to send a special thank you to Ms. Mabel Blessing and Ms. Blessing Adeyeye, who are also students at UB, for coordinating this event.
Stay tuned for more to come from Kids Helping Needy Kids!
