Building a promising future for the children of southeast Atlanta

Building a promising future for the children of southeast Atlanta

Through the consistent support of caring adults, our youth can realize their full potential and create new possibilities for themselves, their families, and our beloved community.

The Challenge

UNMET DEMAND

For every child in an afterschool program, two are waiting to get in, with 238,265 children alone and unsupervised after school in Georgia alone

INCREASING OPPORTUNITY GAP

The “Summer Slide” suggests that students typically experience one month of learning loss over summer break, with low-income students generally more affected

ECONOMIC INEQUITY

The highest-income families spend almost seven times more on enrichment activities for their children

East Atlanta Kids Club creates year-round out-of-school-time learning for youth placed at-risk by partnering with leading providers and tapping into our staff’s talent and passion for youth development to provide a space where youth can nurture their interests, discover new possibilities, and remain active and engaged to ensure their mental and physical wellness.

We achieve this through

S.T.E.A.M.-Based Programming

Coding, A/V production, robotics, gardening, food science, and more are delivered through afterschool and summer camp programming

Fitness & Fun

Movement and healthy activity is delivered through a variety of recreational opportunities, including cycling, dance, rugby, basketball, soccer, tennis, and more

Experiential Learning
