What We Do
Kids Donate To Kids is a nonprofit organization that encourages children to donate items, time, and talents to other kids in need, fostering empathy and community service. We create meaningful opportunities for young people to understand the power of giving and develop lifelong habits of compassion.
Our programs are designed to be age-appropriate, engaging, and educational. We work directly with families, schools, and community groups to organize donation drives, volunteer activities, and service learning projects that connect children with their peers who need support.

Our Mission: Giving back, making a difference.
Our Core Programs
Item Donations
Children collect and donate toys, books, clothes, and school supplies to peers in need. We organize seasonal drives and teach kids about thoughtful giving.
Time & Service
Young volunteers participate in age-appropriate community service projects, from reading to younger children to helping organize donation events.
Talent Sharing
Kids share their special skills and talents with others through tutoring, art projects, music performances, and creative workshops.
Building Empathy Through Action
Why Children Helping Children Matters
When children help other children, they develop crucial life skills including empathy, social responsibility, and leadership. Our approach recognizes that young people have unique perspectives and genuine desire to help their peers.
Research shows that children who engage in regular volunteer activities develop stronger self-esteem, better academic performance, and more positive relationships with others. Through our programs, kids learn that they have the power to make meaningful differences in their communities.

"My daughter learned so much about gratitude through Kids Donate To Kids. She now asks every birthday if she can donate some of her old toys to make room for new ones. It's become a beautiful family tradition."
— Sarah Martinez, Parent Volunteer
"The book drive at our school was incredible. Watching kids choose their favorite books to share with others taught them that giving can be just as exciting as receiving."
