Kids for Kids Foundation Information

We envision a time when all children struggling with health challenges can have a better future and a chance at life… Our Committee - Starting out with 12 Founders, The Kids for Kids Foundation was established in 2008 by a group of New York City professionals to help children and families battling catastrophic diseases. Our community is made up of friends, family, and colleagues who organize and support family-oriented fundraising events. We strive to instill in our youth the importance of helping others, no matter your age... Our Junior Committee - Teaching young children the importance of giving back during the early stages of their lives is one of our core values. This is what inspired the formation of the Kids for Kids Junior Committee back in 2012. This group of 35 children range in age from 5 to 18 years old. They dedicate themselves to organizing year-round creative fundraising events while focusing on their desire to help other children.
