WHO WE ARE

Katie's Kids was founded in 2020 after the tragic death of Kaitlyn Eckelberry at just 23 years old. At such a young age, Kaitlyn had already developed an amazing legacy of helping others less fortunate and was greatly loved by many who called her a friend. Katie's Kids mission is to enhance the self-esteem of children in need by providing them with targeted financial assistance in the form of items such as shoes, prom tickets, instrument rentals, summer camps, choir robes, and various sporting equipment that the child's family can't afford, allowing the child to feel more "normal" amongst their more fortunate peers.
