Kids Helping Kids is devoted to the alleviation of poverty and homelessness by helping at-risk children to build skills and self-sufficiency though tutoring, mentoring, serving as role models, and providing ongoing support and guidance. Kids Helping Kids holds regularly scheduled events with the children at Family Gateway (a Dallas based non-profit organization that helps homeless children and their families become self-sufficient) and provides scholastic tutoring, and mentoring to the children that Family Gateway serves. Kids Helping Kids will grow to provide merit and needs based college scholarships for the children at Family Gateway.
Kids Helping Kids conducts annual projects to benefit the children that they serve. In 2011 this included building a Teen Room at the Family Gateway Center in Dallas. Kids Helping Kids is continuing the work we began last year to raise funds to purchase a van to be used for transportation for the kids at Family Gateway. Family Gateway is offered numerous opportunities to enroll their kids in educational summer camps and cultural events, but has to turn these opportunities down – simply because they do not have the basic transportation to get the kids to and from the events. KHK wants to ensure that these children are able to take advantage of the wonderful educational opportunities they are offered.
This year’s KH5K Run is the primary fund raising event to support this year’s annual project. All proceeds from the event will be used for the purchase of the van. Any excess funds will be used to support the children of Family Gateway, including development and granting of needs and merit based college scholarships for the children that they serve.
