Help Louie’s Kids
Donations & Sponsorships
Louie’s Kids is an organization focused on addressing and helping with life changing programs for children and families who deal with childhood obesity. We have a team that offers their expertise, time and passion with nutrition, fitness, self confidence, and more. Another team at Louie’s Kids who plan and coordinate the many successful fundraisers over the course of our 11 year history.
Louie’s Kids runs a very lean organization, seeks to maximize every donated dollar to the benefit of kids and families. Donations help pay for programs, supplies, healthy food and snacks, transportation, classes, and more.
Since 2001 our supporters have invested over $800,000 in fighting childhood obesity. Now we need your support so our programs can grow at least as fast as the problem.
We can change a kid’s life for as little as $60, paying for a six-month program in their community. More difficult cases might require as much as $600.
We know that childhood obesity is an epidemic, and that education alone won’t solve it. So will you help us with a contribution today to address this growing crisis?
ONE TIME
Thank you for your gift to us. No matter how you give, every bit helps support Louie’s Kids’ programs and our efforts to help one kid at a time in his or her quest to get healthy and happy for life. So often our kids come to us without proper shoes or athletic attire so we do our best to give them the tools and gear necessary to succeed in their weight loss. To give you an idea of what things cost and how your money will be used:
$40 Buys a Girl a Sports Bra
$55 Buys Running Shoes, Athletic socks, T-Shirt for one Child
$70 Pays for 1 Hour of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
$250 Pays for an Annual Teen Membership Fee for a YMCA
$1680 Pays for 12 Weeks of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
As you can see, this is not an inexpensive endeavor. Every dollar counts and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your gracious donation.
MONTHLY
We have a big task ahead of us: one that is in the headlines and in our hearts daily. At Louie’s Kids, we rely on private donations to make our ends meet and our team moving forward. Without these generous donations we wouldn’t be able to keep our lights on, our kids in fitness programs, in sessions with their Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and sometimes with food on their tables they often are lacking. We know you hear from so many and want to support many in your community.
With a recurring donation, you may spread out your gift to Louie’s Kids so $50 or $100 broken down over monthly payments makes it much easier to support us so that we may keep things going for the health of our nation’s kids. Our recurring donation is simple and easy. We thank you for every dollar you give.
