What's Happening

The Brickyard Builds a Sharing Library for Kinship of Tomahawk

Thank you to The Brickyard for building some beautiful additions to our neighborhood! Little by little, piece-by-piece, our big building is feeling more and more like home. All are welcome to sit & read a book from the little lending library. Is the book too long to read it there? Feel free to take it home! Thank you to all the folks who stopped by to eat a cookie and find a book to read. A big thank you to Nicky Krause & her family of volunteers. This library will be a wonderful addition to our new home!!

Kinship Food Pantry
and House Needs

Kinship keeps a pantry of food, hygiene items, and household basics for the families we serve, and the shelves need regular restocking. Canned meats, pasta, toiletries, and KinsKlub snacks are always in demand. Drop-offs are welcome Monday through Thursday, or call to arrange a time.
