Project Description Country: USA Location: Pocatello-Gate City Total Budget: $5,000 Areas of Focus: Maternal and child health, Economic and community development Activity Type: Education: Volunteer Services Summary: Storage Building for Clothes and supplies, to help homeless school children in Pocatello, Idaho, USA. Rotary Club of Pocatello - Gate City along with McKinney-Vento Program in School District 25, of Pocatello, Idaho have identified some student support services throughout our community for school age students. The McKinney-Vento Program has identified over the last five years an increasing population of school age students a need for indigent services. Currently the McKinney-Vento program works to provide, Food; pantries, backpacks, food boxes, free breakfast and lunch; School Supplies; Medical attention: eye care, mental health services; Financial assistance for clothing, fuel; reduce student fees; Grade and Attendance Monitoring; Assistance accessing community services. In Fact the last five years the number of homeless children have increased from 120 to nearly 200 students a year, aging from elementary to high school aged children. Pocatello Rotary would like to reach out and work with McKinney-Vento Program and provide a storage building/shed. The shed would be to store and collect clothes and supplies for the homeless children. This would be stored on and near the school district property, in a region that has been identified as the most needed demographic of children suffering from homelessness. The Rotary club of Pocatello is looking forward to providing this building and starting a multiple year service project of helping provide clothing to these deserving homeless youth of our community, to help instill, what clothes may offer, some sense of self confidence in an ever so difficult circumstances. Our club intends on working to collect clothes or funds for the Rotary Youth Closet to help McKinney-Vento in identifying the youth with these needs in our schools.
