Name: Kids4Coloring
How they give back: Kids for Coloring began when a young girl named Emma, realized that not all children her age had the luxury of having school supplies each year. She has done countless supply drives at her school and other locations to make it possible for kids to have supplies. She shows others her age that it's fun to #give10, help others in the community.

How they give back: Both of these Browns Backers shared that they #give10 whenever they can by donating to local charities both monetarily as well as with their time.
