Marc Bakerman, President of The Child ID Program, said, "We will be in the schools helping to educate parents about child safety, and at the same time donating to the Polly Klaas® Foundation so these essential educational and child find services can continue to flourish."

- A free Polly Klaas® Foundation Child Safety Kit.

- Information about the Polly Klaas Foundation's services for finding missing and runaway children.
