Ways to Give

Kids on the Move for Success appreciates all financial support, both large and small. Your donations will fund a wide variety programs from Lego curriculum used in the STEAM mentoring program, computers for a mobile classroom and supplies that will be used at a Community and Student Safety Town Hall.

In-Kind

Gifts of donated goods, commodities, or services instead of cash are important to supporting our mission. Do you or your company have extra tickets to the zoo, aquarium, movies, sporting events, concerts, ballet, or other activities? In-kind gifts help the children in our program experience new things, but these donations may also serve as live or silent auction items at one of our special events. Please call us before donating large items.

Partnerships

Corporate partners allow us to carry out our mission from scholarships to event, sponsorships and in-kind donations. This year our corporate partners will be recognized as annual sponsors for their combined level of support, as well as at the specific events they have chosen to sponsor. We have multiple levels of becoming a partner or sponsor with a variety of visibility options on our website and other marketing materials including e-mails and signage.

Volunteer

We have a wide variety of volunteering opportunities at special events including Student Safety Town Hall meetings and community outreach. Additionally, we are looking to bring new members to our Board of Directors.
