KPIF 2020 Service SUMMARY

​

Crisis isn't seasonal. This is why our year-round clothing, household products, and diaper drive gets so much attention. Devote an a few hours to stocking or sorting our resource center and see first-hand the local families we help daily.

We strive to help individuals or families in the Knoxville area who find themselves in a crisis due to no fault of their own.
