Local Live Out
Countryside Elementary School
Over 60% of the students at Countryside Elementary live in poverty. In fact, there are 223 children (80%) who receive free or reduced priced meals. In order to qualify for these free meals, a family's situation must be significantly lower than the poverty level. There are actually 40 families who are without a place to call home! Through our partnership, we are able to support these 223 children through several programs throughout the year and help these children look past heir current situation, allowing them to set goals and dream toward their future.
Through a program called YouthFriends, there is an opportunity for volunteers to be paired up directly with an underpriveleged child. Through scheduled meeting times, a mentor is able to choose from a wide range of in-school activities which include having lunch with a student, tutoring, reading to a student, participating in game nights, or simply being a friend who listens. We also partner directly with Countryside Elementary through the Life Enrichment program (see below).

Food Pantry
Through our Food Pantry, we provide basic food and home needs for hundreds in the Olathe community. In 2011, over 1000 people came through our doors and 16,000 meals were supplied. However, with our increasing impact within our community, requests for food, personal hygiene items, and cleaning products are on the rise. When you hit the grocery store consider the food pantry and provide a meal for a hungry neighbor.
