Kids Helping Kids


Grades K thru 12

This program allows students to learn the many aspects involved in planning a charity event and allows them to demonstrate their creativity, leadership and communication skills- all valuable transferable life skills. Most importantly, students learn the true value of giving back to a charity and volunteering to make a difference in a young child's life. With hard work, creativity and a goal in mind, students can create a magical and memorable event or fundraiser, no matter what the size. All ideas are welcome!

Some ideas include:

  • Marathons - Walk/Skate/Dance/Sing/Swim etc.
  • Movie Nights/Carnivals/Talent Shows
  • Bake sales/White Elephant Sales/BBQ's etc.
  • Casual Days/Dress up Days/Pajama Days

Collegiate Program

Each year university students participate in Frosh Week activities where they are introduced to the faculty, facilities, and other students. Becoming involved can be as simple as incorporating a fee or donation during your activities. Events could include a Scavenger Hunt, Movie Night, University Idol, Barbeque, Sports Tournament, Awkwardfest, Pub Night or an Amazing Race.
