Inside every kid is a superhero
Kids already know they have the power to create epic change.
Kids Relief is their platform for action.
Limitless imagination can unlock profound innovation
Kids believe they can change the world. It’s why we’re giving them the tools to do it – by empowering young people and giving them access to leadership, education and growth opportunities.
Poverty is complex. There’s no one solution and we need imagination to end it. Kids have that imagination, and as adults it’s our responsibility to empower and nurture that energy.
Kids Relief funds programs that provide youth with tools to lift themselves, and their communities, out of poverty. Sometimes, the tools are obvious—like food or shelter—but often they’re complex and nuanced; kids have the imagination to imagine a better world, if we give them the tools to create it.
Game to Change the World
Research shows gaming teaches kids critical thinking skills and helps build connections. It’s also a super fun way to learn how we are all stronger when we work together to solve some of the world’s most complex problems.
For two weeks in September, Kids Relief is calling on everyone to play games and create change in their communities and around the world.
