Each summer, KLCAS holds our annual Project Family Connect event where we bring various community partners together to provide services and support in one convenient location. The ultimate purpose of the event is to educate and connect individuals and families with local services and resources that promote economic stability in order to strengthen our community.

For the past 10 years, Project Family Connect has been a day that has changed the lives of countless families and, most importantly, provided them with real hope for the future. In fact, last year alone over 1100 individuals benefited from this single event.

Participants who attend this year will have the opportunity to receive free services such as medical, dental & vision care, haircuts, and children’s books.  They will also have access to necessary items such as hygiene products, food, and clothing.  At the same time, participants will also learn about, and connect with, community service providers who can provide long-term solutions to help them get back on their feet.

We are currently seeking support through event sponsorship's, and donations of clean new or gently used:

  • Sleeping Bags & Blankets
  • Children’s School Clothing
  • Backpack and New School Supplies
  • Baby wipes & Diapers (All Sizes)
  • Job Interview Attire (Nice adult clothing)
  • New underwear & socks 
  • Non-perishable Food
  • Dog Food
  • Monetary donations are appreciated as well.

Donations can be dropped off at KLCAS at 2300 Clairmont Drive, Klamath Falls.  For questions, please call 541-882-3500 and ask for Michael, or visit our website at www.klcas.org.  Please help us further improve our community by providing your support for those with the greatest need.

The event itself will be held on June 29, 2018, at the Klamath County Fairgrounds Event Center from 9am - 2pm.

For more information contact, Michael Smith, Quality Assurance Specialist, at 541-882-3500.
