Kite Club
Join Kite Club today and help DC’s kids soar to new heights.
At Children’s Law Center, a kite symbolizes the joy and possibility of childhood. Our Kite Club supporters play a critical role in ensuring the year-round safety and stability of DC’s kids through their generous gifts of $1,500 or more annually. Thanks to our Kite Club donors, we’re able to intervene during moments of crisis, while continuing to give children the critically important foundation of family, health and education they need to thrive.
For more than 25 years, Kite Club support has made an enormous impact, allowing Children’s Law Center to:
- Pioneer one of the first medical-legal partnerships, now a national model.
- Help secure funding for the Student Fair Access to School Act, which reforms school discipline laws that unfairly target students of color in the District.
- Play a leading role in DC passing numerous laws that keep children out of foster care and with caring relatives.
Jill and I are all in for Children’s Law Center. Their work is unbelievably compelling and important for our community and for our hearts. We hope to work with them for as long as we can.
