KIDS FOR KIDS FUND

After attending a friends' birthday party, Joshua asked, "What is she going to do with all those presents?". He then decided he wanted to collect gifts for kids who did not have any birthday presents. It was at this point, Kidsforkidsfund was started.

Since then, Joshua and his sister Sophia have been holding lemonade stands, baking treats, watching neighborhood animals and any small job to raise money so other children can have presents on their birthday. Joshua also decided not to have any friends give him gifts on his birthday. Instead he is collecting unwrapped new presents to bring to the kids at the local YWCA. You can help by donating funds or buying small new gifts that Joshua will ensure to give to kids in need.

In addition, this desire to give has expanded. Sophia heard the need to help her grandfather who is currently in the Peace Corp in Ethiopia. One of his emails mentioned how all the children in his village fight over the few soccer balls available. Sophia decided to send soccer balls to the children in his village. We are currently looking at shipping options and gaining partners to help us with this goal.

This blog documents the journey of kids giving to other kids. In addition, it is hosting Joshua's other passion, taking photos. He took all the photos in this blog unless otherwise mentioned or he is in it! We merged his other photo blog site to this one in order to combine his interests. We hope you enjoy and check back often as he begins to document the work of kidsforkidsfund.

If you are inspired and you want to give or help Joshua and Sophia, please email us at kids@kidsforkidsfund.org.

Thanks!!
