Programs
Project 5000
Project 5000 is our summer food program in collaboration with Second Harvest Food Bank of East TN and the local school systems to provide easy accessible meals for children during the summer months.
Project 5000 was developed in 2017 and has provided thousands of easy accessible meals to children.
Haven of Help & Hope
When children are removed from their homes, it can sometimes be difficult to find an immediate, safe place for them to go. Haven of Help & Hope is our transitional apartment, which temporarily provides a safe, home-like environment for DCS to stay with children while awaiting a more permanent placement to become available.
Kip's Kloset
Kip's Kloset allows a child in transition to "shop" for brand new clothes. Often when a child in removed from their home they do not have the opportunity to take their belongings with them, Kip's Kloset allows them to pick out their own clothes to take with them to their more permanent placement. Kip's Kloset was established in memory of Kip McCoy Walker.
