About Us
Kids on the Move for Success is proud to allow our next generation to have a voice in making changes in their schools and communities.Kids on the Move for Success mission is….
Believes that there are many issues that contribute to the success of children. For children to succeed, they must feel safe, must be transported to a world beyond their everyday life, learn that STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) fields are available to all (African American and girls) and that giving back to the community is important in learning acceptance and developing leadership skills.
Kids on the Move for Success believes compassion, confidence and control are foundational elements in the success of children now and in the future. Our programs are designed to be mobile and dynamic allowing us to impact communities at the local, state and national level.
