When life gets very hard for anyone, it gets harder for us all. Here at KCL, as mothers ourselves, we dedicate what we save through couponing not just to supporting our own families, but to helping families around the world. Join us in getting involved with Save the Children, one of KCL's favorite charities. Together, we can save the children—literally.
