Why WinterKids?

WinterKids helps children develop healthy lifelong habits through education and fun outdoor winter activity. We create opportunities for children to be active, vibrant, and healthy in the outdoors.

The joy of winter is discovered! A connection with nature is created. Physical fitness improves. Confidence grows. Learning is enhanced.

Donate today to help ensure our next generation is healthier than those before them.

When you make a tax-deductible donation to WinterKids, you are supporting effective, evidence-based solutions to reducing childhood obesity and the loss of connection to the natural environment. Your contribution is so much more than charity; it’s an investment in the future of our children and our outdoor heritage.
