Supporting Displaced Children at Camp Atterbury

Thank you, so much, for your interest in partnering with Beloved to serve the displaced children housed at Camp Atterbury. I’m so grateful that the Red Cross has entrusted our community with this opportunity to provide, in some small way, for the physical and emotional needs of these kids in crisis. Because the children and families at Camp Atterbury will be relocated over the next few months, it’s imperative that we meet this need within the next two weeks. By providing each child in residence with a high-quality duffle bag full of support items and necessities, we will be equipping them to enter an unfamiliar space with something of value, something familiar that belongs to them. We would be so grateful for your help in reaching the goal of equipping each of the 2900 displaced children with a Beloved Bag. Here’s how you can help!

Because we have to order supplies to fill these bags by early next week, financial donations are the most expedient way to make an immediate difference. Each bag, fully equipped, costs about $50. If you have access to contributions that would help us in this effort, you can donate them online at www.belovedbags.org. If we exceed our targeted financial goal, all remaining funds will be used to provide a Beloved Bag to our core recipients- children entering foster or kinship care in our local community.
