Philanthropy Kids is enabling youth across North Texas to use their strengths and interests to become leaders in their community as young philanthropists. Our PAVE Programs partner with schools to teach kids about giving back and getting involved on campus and in their communities. Beginning in 2027, Philanthropy Kids will launch Crash Course Causes, a series of bite-sized public PAVE experiences where youth can learn about various cause areas and careers they can engage with here in DFW. This will be available to participants in our Impact Factory incubator and young people interested in improving their skills to serve others better.
Your gifts on North Texas Giving Day will empower our rollout of this program and demonstrate the public support that can drive institutional funding for this program to sustain it long-term.
Consider making your gift during the Early Giving period to help us reach our $2,500 challenge grant that unlocks when 30 people give by Wednesday, September 16th. We also are matching all donations above $500 dollar-for-dollar!
Regardless of your contribution amount, all of your support goes towards furthering our work to build the #NextGenerationOfGivers one young philanthropist at a time!
The mission of Philanthropy Kids is to celebrate and inspire young changemakers through education, leadership, and hands-on philanthropy experiences.
At Philanthropy Kids, we define philanthropy as the love of humankind. That includes treating every member of the global community with compassion and respect. It also means that organizations and individuals should actively work towards more just and equitable society.
As an organization that aims to advocate for social justice and racial equity Philanthropy Kids employs the following principles to drive our operational and programmatic practices:
-We are committed to ensure that every policy enacted aligns with the values of equity and justice.
-We recognize the implicit biases of leadership as individual persons and collectively as an institution and will establish checks on those biases in all decision-making environments.
-We celebrate the differences of our staff, our volunteers, and our program participants and realize that diversity in thought breeds more complete and more inclusive opportunities and initiatives.
-We will design protocols that allow all communities to join our mission and work to remove practices and policies that discriminate or provide barrier to access.
-We will utilize data and analytics to identify areas of success and areas of weakness with how we serve different demographics (e.g. race, gender, sex, socioeconomic status, disability status, etc.)
