* Suitcases, bags and backpacks must be new or in clean, gently used condition.
Once you have collected the items, please drop them off at: RASCW (4801 Forest Run Road, Madison) or Restaino & Associates (26 Schroeder Ct, Madison) or contact Beth Fletcher at 608-240-2800 or beth@wisre.com to arrange for a pick up at your office.
A REALTOR® Supported Service Project
Foster care children often relocate, toting their possessions in plastic garbage bags because they cannot afford suitcases of their own. Suitcases for Kids is an international nonprofit organization that collects and distributes new and gently used suitcases, duffle bags and backpacks for these children. In 2006 RASCW started its involvement in this campaign and to date has provided over 1596 bags to various human services organizations in Dane, Columbia, Crawford, Grant, Iowa, Lafayette and Richland Counties. For more information, please contact Beth Fletcher at 608-240-2800 or beth@wisre.com.
