Kids in Philanthropy
Kids In Philanthropy (KiP) improves the lives of young people experiencing disadvantage, homelessness and food insecurity. We catalyze school aged children through immersive youth based service learning programs that make and distribute food, care kits and other items to Australians in need.
We provide youth with an opportunity to engage in meaningful volunteer work. Our programs foster greater community connection and empathy and support participants to contribute to a more just, equitable, and compassionate world.
Project Summary
KiP’s School Access Fund will deliver free and discounted programs in low-socioeconomic communities.
This fund will:
– Build Skills & Resilience: Help students from low socioeconomic communities develop communication and critical-thinking skills, increase their connection to community, and strengthen their resilience
– Extend Our Reach: Empower students to create goods and distribute meal packs to young people experiencing hardship.
– Build the Next Generation of Changemakers: Equip young people with the skills, confidence and connections to make a difference in their community
As we approach 30 June, we are seeking donations for this fund. Excitingly, not only is every donation tax-deductible, but thanks to the generosity of the Scalzo Family through the Grace and Emilio Foundation, every dollar up to $20,000 will be doubled by the Scalzo Family (through the Grace & Emilio Foundation).
Project Outcomes
For every $100 donated to this fund, 1 child from a low socioeconomic area will participate in a KiP program, and enabling them to pack up to 6 meal packs to be distributed people experiencing disadvantage, homelessness and food insecurity. Our program will improve community connections, empathy and mental well-being of participants and recipients.
