More About Kingdom Kids
Through access to the outdoors, kids can learn about themselves, gain self esteem, and establish a love for the place that surrounds them. Kingdom Kids strives to remove barriers to participation by working to provide equipment, trail passes, transportation, and the support that is needed to experience all that their local area has to offer. By bridging this gap, we can give kids the option to connect with the outdoors.
Fresh air, open land, and the opportunity to experience those things is what kids need right now, so stand with us in supporting our community's youth, and give them a chance to discover everything there is to love about being outside.
