What is Kids Cause?
Our future rests in the hopes and dreams of our children.
Some will go on to greatness while others will struggle as
their parents have before them.
Bonneville Uni-Serv educators recognize that many students
in our schools are struggling. Some live without the
basic necessities of food, clothing and shelter despite the
availability of social assistance programs. Alpine,
Nebo and Provo Education Associations have joined with the
United Way and community groups to serve Utah County
children. Children from low-income families who need
glasses, shoes, winter coats, or medical needs, can receive
these items through the Kids Cause coordinator at their
school.
Over 65 schools in Utah County have selected a Kids Cause
coordinator who works with the principal, staff and parents
to meet student needs. Teachers have direct contact
with their students and can immediately detect physical
ailments that deter students from learning.
Kids Cause works to ensure that the physical, social and
emotional needs of the students will not stand in the way of
success in the school setting.
