“Few things in life are more important than
helping needy kids.”
- Steve Swenson, Kids First Fund donor and supporter since 2000 (Dallas, Texas, USA)
Our Mission:
Help the kids needing the most help in countries where help is needed.
The Kids: The Kids First Fund is a U.S. based non-profit organization
dedicated to supporting the needs of kids that are sexually and physically
abused, abandoned or neglected.
The Countries: The Kids First Fund concentrates its support in
countries where resources are limited. We currently direct our efforts
and resources to the countries of Latvia on the Baltic Sea (adjacent to Russia,
Estonia and Lithuania) and Moldova (adjacent to Romania and the Ukraine). Within these countries, we concentrate on rural areas where
poverty is a pervasive condition.
The Program: The Kids First Fund develops programs to provide
professional education to identify and treat abused children. We are creating
Latvia’s first family shelter to care for abused women and their
children. Our partners include the Latvian government and local social
service agencies.
