welcome to strikes for kids

Who we are

​Strikes For Kids is a 501c(3) national charitable organization founded in 2012 with a single aim — helping kids around the country. So how do we do it? We’ve organized over 100 bowling, softball, and golf events with extraordinary partners. Over 125 NFL, NBA, MLB and MMA athletes have joined our efforts and spent a unique afternoon with their young fans and families in a rare and memorable experience while supporting a worthy cause. Helping those who need it the most by giving away backpacks, toys, and scholarships during the life-changing and motivational experience.

Strikes For Kids’ events are held nationally with the help of leading sports organizations and communities to reward local student-athletes ranging from the ages 6-13 for their athletic and academic successes. One day at a time, we’re empowering and inspiring the youth to become the leaders of tomorrow.
​
How to be part of our effort? Local businesses and individuals can help us keep doing what we do with tax-deductible donations and many other ways of actively getting involved. Reach out!

​Our programs​


​​BIKE GIVEAWAY

Since the inception of our Strikes For Kids Bike Giveaway Program in 2018, we’ve awarded over 250 bikes to kids around the country for their academic and athletic success. A new bike is undoubtedly a neat reward for any kid, but having it handed by a pro athlete and topping the evening with endless pizza and unlimited arcade games makes the Program’s rewards much more meaningful and inspiring.

​BACKPACK GIVEAWAY

Launched in 2017, the Strikes For Kids Backpack Giveaway Program has proven to be a way to ease the financial burden school supplies can be on families in specific communities. By partnering with Backpacks USA, a leading backpack and school supplies wholesaler, we’ve provided 2,000 fully stocked backpacks in our first year, followed by 3,500 backpacks in 2018 and 5,000 in 2019. Derailed by the pandemic in 2020, 2021 and 2022, we’re getting ready to give out the most significant number of backpacks in our history in 2023 to students nationwide, ensuring a successful, stress-free start to the school year.

​toy giveaway

The Strikes For Kids Toy Giveaway Program rewards student-athletes for their athletic and academic successes with an evening of pizza, arcade games, and a massive toy giveaway hosted by a pro athlete showing kids there’s always time for fun while still excelling in every facet of their lives. Each of our past Toy Giveaways has brought smiles to the faces of between 50 and 100 local kids.

​scholarship giveaway

The Strikes For Kids Scholarship Program supports high school seniors with college tuition, housing, books, and suppliers with sums between $250 and $1,500. To qualify for the Program, students must hold a minimum 3.0 GPA, complete 40+ hours of community service, and participate in extracurricular activities for two years. Applicants also submit a 2,000-word essay on why they want to go to college and how they can apply what they learn in college to help their community. Education is the most effective way of giving our kids a chance in life. Now, please help us get them there.

We look forward to seeing you at the next Strikes For Kids event
