Clayton Police Department announces Adventure Bags, Inc. Partnership

Today, the Clayton Police Department announces its partnership with Adventure Bags, Inc. Adventure Bags, Inc. is a non-profit that provides backpacks filled with overnight essentials and comfort items to children who are in crisis. These bags are donated to agencies that serve children across the state at no charge. Adventure Bags, Inc. backpacks not only comfort a child who is in a situation that is beyond their control but are also used as a tool for the agencies, foster homes, shelters, and first responders who serve children and/or families as a relationship builder and to assist them as they navigate through the first 24-48hrs of displacement. Through the organization’s, “Help Us Help Heroes Program,” the non-profit has been able to provide over 800 Adventure Bags to first responders across the state, enabling them to offer security and comfort to the children in their community during crisis situations. Misty Manus, Executive Director, says “With these bags, it is our desire that no child be without something that they can call their own and feel a sense of security and comfort during traumatic situations.” Information about this organization and these bags can be found on Adventure Bags Inc, website at www.adventurebags.org or follow them on FACEBOOK at Adventure Bags. Adventure Bags, Inc was founded in October of 2011, and since has served over 45,000 children, while partnering with over 400 agencies in all 159 counties in the state of Georgia.
