Four Kids by Kids is a non-profit organization created as a resource for low income grade students. Our purpose is to reward those students that are high achievers with the opportunity to explore, learn and enjoy positive life experiences beyond the classroom. We understand the value of memories earned through life experiences.
We sponsor children whose families are financially challenged by providing them a chance to participate in summer school field trips, reading programs, access to the arts and other positive life changing experiences. We want to keep our children engaged, encouraged and motivated as they continue reaching their highest learning potential.
In addition to our rewards program, Four Kids by Kids, has a summer reading program that encourages kids to read during the summer school break. We also collaborate with educators to teach financial literacy.

4 Kids by Kids, Inc. is a 501(c)3 tax exempt non-profit organization.
We believe in the importance of children learning to play a musical instrument. That's why 4 Kids by Kids, Inc. will be supporting grade school students who desire to participate in music or theatre classes. This reward is strictly for families who are unable to pay for rental instruments or supplies. Children must be high achievers with good classroom conduct.
Learning to play an instrument:
• improves academic skills
• develops physical skills
• cultivates social skills
• refines discipline and patience
• boosts self-esteem
• introduces children to other cultures
Music and math are highly intertwined. By understanding beat, rhythm, and scales, children are learning how to divide, create fractions, and recognize patterns. It seems that music wires a child's brain to help him better understand other areas of math, says Lynn Kleiner, founder of Music Rhapsody in Redondo Beach, CA
What are your kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews doing for the Summer? Four Kids by Kids has a summer reading program. This program is specifically targeted to boys 5th- 8th grade; but girls are welcome to participate. We want to encourage boys to read more, so we give a monetary incentive at the end of the program. If you want more information or want to sponsor a kid, please email me at director@fourkidsbykids.org . *
*The number of participants is based on the number of sponsors.
We would love to hear from educators who have identified students that may need assistance with participation in school events.
