April 2013 – The Basics Alaska Charity Event

The Basics mission is to advocate and support children in need of shoes and winter clothing,

which would enable healthy, safe, active lifestyles in school, sports, and recreational

setting. Launching the newly formed non-profit began during the fall of 2012, focusing on

the needs of the Children in Transition program with the Anchorage School District, serving

over 3,800 students. The goal of “The Basics” is to expand statewide within Alaska.

What sets The Basics apart from other non-profits?

1. Efficient, effective process which enables staff to supply gym shoes & winter gear

in a timely manner.

2. Children will not be singled out or recognized as a peer in need.

3. Staff working with The Basics will provide quarterly reports to The Basics Executive

Board, which then will be disseminated to sponsors, donors and members.

Stop by the salon and check out our silent auction items, product of the month, and sign

up for the "Walk/Run in My Shoes" event on April 30th. All proceeds benefit Anchorage

children in need.
