It’s That Wonderful Time of Year Again!

Just like the kids, we are brimming with excitement for the back-to-school season. Last year, we united for Crest View Elementary, ensuring these future leaders had the tools they needed to succeed. With a significant portion of Crest View’s student body coming from low-income families, our support remains crucial for the youth of our community. Thanks to your generosity, we provided teachers and students with supplies for the entire year.

This year is particularly special—and crucial—as it marks the final year Crest View Elementary School will be open. Starting the 2025-26 school year, the Crest View Elementary building will be repurposed, and students will attend other schools within the district. The good news is we will continue supporting today’s youth by connecting with these new schools and providing our ongoing support.

We have one final opportunity to make a lasting impact on Crest View’s student body. Your donations will equip each student with essential tools like rulers, notebooks, folders, and pencils. These items may seem small, but to a child in need, they can make the difference between passing and failing.

A donation of just $40 covers the cost of supplies for one child. Imagine the joy and relief a child feels, knowing they have everything they need to succeed. You can make this a reality by donating through the button below.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your generosity and commitment to making a positive change. Let’s come together one last time to ensure every child at Crest View Elementary starts the school year ready and equipped for success.

Brooklyn Park Community Kickback Update

Living Word’s Brooklyn Park Community Kickback was nothing less than a good time! 32+ volunteers from all ages supported 60+ families, friends, neighbors, and business partners. This family-style event allowed participants to enjoy food, music, games, and raffles. A few families stated they felt completely comfortable around our staff and volunteers. They are now looking forward to attending more events. We successfully brought our core values to the community as a team. It was well received.
