October through December 2026
A Season of Kindness
One season. Several ways to help feed local children.
This holiday season, The Kind Mouse invites our community to turn kindness into dependable food for children across Pinellas and Manatee Counties. Attend an event, organize a food drive, make a gift or become a monthly donor. Together, we can help fill little tummies all season long.
The Kind Mouse helps feed over 1,000 children each week in Manatee County.
Food is delivered through schools, after-school programs and trusted community partners. The Kind Mouse is not a walk-in food pantry.
