Adopt-a-Classroom
Through the Adopt-a-Classroom program, humane agencies, civic groups, parents, and businesses "adopt" elementary-school classes by providing them with gift subscriptions to Humane Society United States Youth's award-winning classroom newspaper, KIND News. Since the program's inception in 1985, participants have provided KIND News to millions of schoolchildren, enhancing humane education throughout the country.
KIND News is aligned with National Education Standards for the major subject areas and is used by teachers across the curriculum. Schools’ renewed focus on character education makes KIND News an especially valuable resource for teachers.
