Fundraising Record Broken
With Hot Chocolate Fundraisers

P.R.O. Kids would like to thank Kingston Brewing Company, KFL&A Public Health, and our event volunteers for their help with our hot chocolate fundraisers held at the Jingle Bell Walk and K-Town Countdown events. Between the two events, we raised $1,075.46 with $816.27 being raised just at the New Year's Eve event. 100% of P.R.O. Kids donations are directed towards the community recreation program registration fees of Kingston children and youth aged 0-18 lacking sufficient financial resources.
