The Kids In Need Foundation (KINF), a national non-profit dedicated to providing free school supplies to students most in need, is partnering with Carrabba's Italian Grill to host a Back-to-School Wine Pairing Dinner on Wednesday, August 14th.
Local kids, teachers and classrooms will benefit from the proceeds of the event. Carrabba's Italian Grill and KINF will identify teachers with current applications on the SupplyAClassroom.org platform, who are located near Carrabba's restaurant locations, to receive support from the event.
There are several ways diners can get involved to help:
KINF's SupplyAClassroom.org platform is a way for local donors to locate and directly support classrooms that are meaningful to them. Each summer, teachers from across the country can submit a personal statement and share how the classroom supplies will impact their students. Donors can search for a specific teacher, a city or state, school district and find classrooms in a community in need of support. Donors can fund all or a portion of the school supplies, called Classroom Supply Boxes, or even fund multiple schools within a district.
