At Children In Need, Inc., we are incredibly fortunate to have community partners who consistently step up for local children, and Pen-Mar Realtors is one of those organizations.

This week, members of their team volunteered alongside our Warehouse Coordinator, Lori Barnes, helping sort through clothing donations that will soon make their way into the hands of children and families who need them most.

Whether it's lending a hand, supporting our programs, or showing up when our community needs them, Pen-Mar Realtors always finds a way to make a difference. Their ongoing commitment helps ensure that thousands of children in Washington County have access to clothing, shoes, and other essentials throughout the year.

Thank you, Pen-Mar Realtors, for your generosity, your time, and for always showing up for our kiddos. We are grateful to have you in our corner.

Schools out next WEEK! Can you believe it? Summer is almost here, and so is the return of the Meal Machine through Washington County Public Schools - Food and Nutrition Services. Check out the lunch menu for free summer meals running June 15th through August 14th for children 18 & under.

: Please note that due to a construction project at the MLK Building this summer, Children In Need, Inc.'s Meal Machine stop will be relocated to Wheaton Park from 11:50 a.m. to 12:10 p.m. this year.

We cannot wait to see our kiddos again and help make summer a little brighter!

Please help us wish Happy Birthday to our longest serving volunteer, Marjie! She has been with Children In Need, Inc. for over two decades years and is a huge part of why our agency is able to serve so many kiddos!

Marjie is one of our dedicated volunteers who checks in our clients and helps manage our client database alongside Ms. Liz. We adore her!
