Connecting Kids is supported by Community Donors & Grants

Two out of Five youth in our area is not engaged in any out-of-school-time enrichment activity—that means nearly 2,000 hours of unstructured time each year. Financial cost to register for an activity continues to be the primary barrier to participation for many families

We are happy to accept any level of financial support for our program - all of which goes directly to youth scholarships.

Examples of how your donation can help:

$25 would sponsor a 12 year old to participate in Intro to Pottery Class
$50 would sponsor a 6 year old to participate in Swimming Lessons
$85 would sponsor a 9 year old to participate in Drama Kids
$100 would sponsor a 14 year old to participate in 9 weeks of Gymnastics
$150 would sponsor a 15 year old to participate in four months of Dance
$200 would sponsor an 11 year old to participate in Summer Horse Camp
$250 would sponsor a 10 year old to participate in Camp Patterson Summer Camp
