842 Bags & Countless Smiles

KSKJ Days Wrap-Up

This year’s KSKJ Days was more than a celebration—it was a show of heart. Our KSKJ Life community came together to support Blessings in a Backpack, helping provide weekend meals to children facing food insecurity. The Home Office team packed 500 bags of food during a hands-on volunteer event, and your generosity helped raise $3,424, funding an additional 342 backpacks.

 

In total, we delivered 842 bags of food—each one filled with nourishment, stability, and care for a child who needed it.

 

Thank you to every member, lodge, and agent who helped make this year’s KSKJ Days a success. You’ve made a meaningful difference in the lives of hundreds of children—and reminded us all of the power of community in action.
