At Kids’ Chance of America, we believe in the power of connection. When we come together, we grow stronger—and with that strength, we can help more kids.
What started as one man’s mission in Georgia has grown into a unified national movement. Today, Kids’ Chance organizations are working together to turn tragedy into opportunity for the children of workers who have been killed or seriously injured on the job. This powerful network reaches across industries, state lines and communities to ensure no child’s future is derailed because of a workplace accident.
Now that Kids’ Chance has a presence in all 50 states, we’re entering a new chapter—one that positions Kids’ Chance of America as the hub of this growing nationwide movement. Our focus is shifting to supporting and strengthening state organizations in their vital mission. Through innovative tools, strategic guidance and a robust referral network, we help states connect eligible students with the scholarships and support they need.
KCOA exists to amplify the work of our state partners. By providing critical resources like training, technology, marketing and operational guidance, we help strengthen every corner of our network. When one state grows its capacity to serve, we all benefit. When we innovate together, we raise the bar for what’s possible. We are truly Stronger Together.
The impact is clear: more than 11,000 scholarships awarded, totaling more than $42 million—and we’re just getting started. Behind each of those numbers is a student pursuing a dream that once felt out of reach. Their stories are the heart of our mission and the reason we continue to invest in growing this movement.
To our volunteers, donors and partners: Thank you. Your commitment makes us stronger and propels us to a brighter future. In a perfect world, no family would face the aftermath of a workplace injury or loss. Until that day comes, we stand united—lifting up the kids who need us most.
Together, we are not only providing scholarships —we are creating possibilities. We are changing lives. And we are proving, every day, that we are stronger together.
