I know it is 2022, but there is always a need for mobile white boards for teaching at our MTC, in our Day Care spaces, and elsewhere.
Vans for Kingdom Builders Day Care - $25,000-$85,000
We have nearly 30 school-aged children at Kingdom Builders. Many of them are with us before and after school and we provide a ride to school. Every day, we run 2-3 vans. The model years for our current vans are 1992 and 2002. We would like to update these. One of the kids reminds Ms. Cynthia every time we drive by a newer Ford Transit or Sprinter van that she is praying for our new vans and asks when they are coming. It would cost close to $85,000 for a newer (less than 2yrs old) van like she is looking at. of course, $25,000 would update them with 1-2 mid-2000 era vans, which would still be newer than what we have.
Day Care Furniture and Supplies - $5 to $5000
Kingdom Builders Preschool & Day Care has been in operation for almost 18 years. We have been in our current location for 12 years. Although we have periodically replaced furniture and supplies as it wears out, we always have needs for additional or replacement furniture, toys, and supplies. Additionally, we are working to open additional space on our MTC property for expansion of our Day Care ministry, particularly our school-age program. This will involve getting additional duplicate furniture and supplies.
We are working to get a specific list of needs put together but currently, any usable daycare furniture, toys, and supplies would be accepted.

Kingdom Builders - 6 yards beach sand for play ground - $170
Kingdom Builders Preschool & Day Care has been in operation for almost 18 years. We have been in our current location for 12 years. The playground for the upper school is filled with sand. Over time, the sand disappears…some of it sinking or tracked off the playground, the rest of it in the homes of our students, one shoe-full at a time! Every few years, we have to add sand to make sure that the drop-off from the sidewalk to the sand does not become dangerous. It’s that time again!

Food for Families - 4 stainless steel modular shelving units - $124.95 apiece ($499.80)
Food For Families, our Food Bank, is in need of new shelving for food storage. Shelving will be used for boxed and canned food as well as foodbank supplies. Currently, our food bank utilizes wooden hand-made shelves that were donated. However, this limits the types of storage we are able to use them for because certain foods cannot be stored on these units. Also, they tend to attract unwanted bugs. Stainless steel mesh is preferred for this application

Food for Families - 2 stainless steel tables - $129.99 Apiece ($259.98)
Food For Families, our Food Bank, is in need of new tables for sorting. Since the majority of our food is received at or near its expiration date, we must go through all food when we receive it to ensure it’s quality before storing it or distributing it. The health department prefers (often requires) stainless steel tables for food preparation in order to avoid food contamination because they are more easily cleaned. These tables would improve the quality and safety of our food sorting process.
