"I just want to say thank you for serving us dinner tonight.  This gift you bring to us is greatly appreciated and goes a long way.  You bring a sense of happiness and a warm feeling into my heart with your gift, and joy and harmony into my life.  So thank you."

-- A note from a client at the men's homeless shelter where KidzCare USA sometimes serves meals

"Thanks to KidzCare, I’m more aware of the moments of service that I grew up with and that I have experienced through my life.  And I have been inspired to join a group from my church that is going down to New Orleans for a week in February to rebuild houses...Thanks again for all the time and effort you put into KidzCare.  I know this experience will influence my children for their whole lives."

"I have two children...who have been participating in KidzCare since the fall [of 2009].  I am a huge fan!  My children have really broadened their horizons, and now often think about those who are homeless, sick, or needy, immigrating, elderly, or disabled -- I am just amazed at the difference a small amount of time focusing each week has made.  They have toured a homeless shelter, shopped for, cooked, and packed meals for the hungry, made gifts for children overseas in poverty, made adoption signs for an animal shelter, and learned a tremendous amount about immigration, endangered species, and so on....The course is very well-organized and engaging....The director is responsive and caring.  In short, I highly recommend it."
