2025 Annual Backpack Give Away
In 2025, the foundation returned to Snapfinger Elementary, where we distributed 100 backpacks filled with school supplies, provided three laptops for a student drawing, restocked the break room with snacks, water, coffee, soda, and utensils, and purchased copy paper for the front office. We are also planning to attend the first PTA meeting at Bouie Elementary on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, to distribute additional supplies and resources to students and families.
2024 Annual Backpack Give Away
We returned to Edward L. Bouie Elementary School, which will now be a staple in our annual Back to School Drive as Kennedy’s “home” school. We revisited Flatrock Elementary for a second time with backpack and school supplies, expanding our support to even more young learners. This year, we also joined the Chestnut Lake Community Family Day, where we provided 50 backpacks filled with supplies and gifted two laptops to students in need.
2023 Snapfinger Elementary School Teachers' Lounge Remodel
The Kennedy Maria Segars Foundation would like to thank everyone for your donations and for volunteering your time. With your help, the KMS Foundation completed the remodeling of the teacher's lounge at Snapfinger Elementary. We truly couldn’t have done it without you.
Thank you to Principal Potter, Assistant Principal Dunlap, administrators, staff, and most importantly, the teachers for allowing the KMS Foundation to create a space where you can relax, enjoy, and take a moment to breathe. 💙
