GOT KIDS?

Caring for Youth Facing Overwhelming Circumstances

Got Kids was created to help children and teens facing some of life's most difficult circumstances. Our volunteers work to bring encouragement, resources, advocacy, community connections, and practical assistance to young people and families who need support.

 

Children & Teens We Serve

Abused & Abandoned Youth
Supporting children and teens experiencing abuse, abandonment, instability, or other serious hardships.

Children & Teens With Serious Illnesses or Disabilities
Helping connect children, teens, and their families with resources, support, and community assistance.

Human Trafficking Survivors
Supporting children and teens coming out of human trafficking by helping connect them with appropriate resources, organizations, and assistance.

Bullying Prevention & Youth Encouragement
Our S.W.I.G. — Seeing Winners Inspires Greatness — was created to encourage young people, address bullying, and help students recognize the best in themselves and those around them. Older program materials also describe S.W.I.G. as the “Program to End Bullying.”

Schools & Community Outreach
Providing educational outreach, speakers, seminars, awareness programs, and opportunities to encourage children and strengthen communities.

Toys, Shops, & Children's Project

Got Kids has a history of collecting donated toys, games, dolls, collectibles, and stuffed animals to clean, repair, restore, and repurpose for charitable projects. Antiques, collectibles, and repurposed stuffed animals may also support ongoing toy needs.

Cards for Kids
Creating handmade cards and encouraging messages for children.

Memorable Treasures
Giving donated and restored toys, games, stuffed animals, and collectibles another opportunity to create happy memories.

Community Partnerships
Working with other charities, organizations, volunteers, and community partners when collaboration can help accomplish more.
