What’s Kids Up Front?

Kids Up Front is a passionate organization committed to ensuring that every child, regardless of their circumstances, has access to enjoyable and enriching experiences. Our mission is to provide deserving children with fun-filled opportunities that not only bring joy but also promote inclusion and strengthen communities. The children and youth we serve rely on us to alleviate their stresses and anxieties, foster a sense of belonging, and create meaningful memories that enable them to thrive.

How it works

We receive your monthly donation along with generous donations from other donors (event tickets, recreation passes, backstage tours) and turn these into enriching experiences.

We facilitate these experiences for deserving youth with 200+ local, youth-serving partner agencies*, including Big Brothers Big Sisters, Crystal Kids, etc.

Kids and their chaperones enjoy the experience together, forming lasting bonds, developing self esteem, increasing their sense of belonging and overall, having FUN!

We report back to you about the INCREDIBLE impact you’re making through your generosity.
