We are thrilled to say that our owls have big hearts! October 6th was our very first Giving Party and our kids collectively donated $4000! We had over 100 children come together for two local non-profits: Endless Sports and Emi’s Enchanted Events! There was singing, there was dancing, there was giving, and there was love! 💕 We could not be more proud! And, our kids collected over a truck full of hurricane relief supplies. A very special thanks to these amazing charities, our beautiful kids, our big owls, and all of the wonderful parents! And a very special thanks to all of our sponsors, as we could not have done this without you! Stay tuned for upcoming events! We can’t wait to get together again!

Past Giving Party Charities
Emi’s Enchanted Events • $1000 Donation from our Kids
Emi's Enchanted Events Inc. delivers support and smiles to children and their families that are battling an illness or going through a difficult life circumstance. Emi’s Enchanted Events was inspired by a beautiful child named Emi, who battled Pulmonary Hypertension. As we all know, when one family member is going through something, the whole family is going through that journey with them. They work to provide each individual with a sense of support and happiness. Watch the video of one of their events and visit their site to learn more.

What is a Giving Party?
At Kids Who Give, we believe in the power of giving back! Three times a year, we host exciting giving parties where kids like you can help local charities. Here’s how it works:
-
Meet Local Charities: You'll get to meet two amazing charities that make a difference in our community.
-
Cast Your Vote: After learning about them, you’ll vote for your favorite charity. Donations will be split 75/25 between the charities.
-
Make a Difference: Share a bit of your piggy bank money to help! We suggest a donation of $25, but give what you can—every little bit helps! We suggest parents match kids donations.
-
Celebrate Together: After we’ve raised funds, we have a fun dance party with yummy treats!
No matter how much you can give, we welcome everyone to join us in making the world a better place. Let’s spread kindness together!
