Breakaway Rockies Tournament proudly sponsors Kits for Kids.
Kits for Kids provide personal hygiene and basic "medicine cabinet" items that are scarce in the developing world.

Working with pediatricians and nurses, Project C.U.R.E. developed Kits for Kids to give parents in developing countries the supplies they need to provide basic care at home. A bar of soap encourages handwashing, too. Kits for Kids is a great service learning project or family activity!
