Denver Kids, Inc.

Adjusting to life in a new country is challenging, but Holly, who moved from the Congo, has flourished since joining Denver Kids in 8th grade. Once shy and introverted, she’s now a confident young woman dreaming of modeling and acting. With her Advisor’s support, Holly has shed insecurities, excelled at school, and thrived at camp, making lifelong friends and embracing her individuality. She’s breaking stereotypes and building a future on her own terms. Can you help us empower more students like Holly in 2025?

We had a blast at Boondocks Food & Fun celebrating our fall mentor matches today! Ice breakers, arcade games, and some friendly laser tag competition made it a fun-filled morning. We’re excited to see what these new mentor/mentee pairs will experience together this year!

We never miss a chance to uplift our students, and our recent Back 2 School Night was no exception. Students, families, and staff came together for fun, food, and connection to kick off the 2024-2025 school year. With interactive games and prizes, meaningful moments spent together, and a sneak peek into our Denver Kids program, this event set a positive tone for the year ahead. We’re so proud of the hard work our students are already putting in to shape their futures! #denverkids #backtoschool
