Take a Chance for Kids

Initially piloted in the Spring of 2019, we had full intentions to make this event annual after being so successful the first year. In 2020, we were unable to host the event and the years that followed required adjusting to post-pandemic life. As of now, we are in a place to confidently relaunch this event and engage our supporters in a new, unique, and exciting way!

Why Now?

In the past 3 years, KidVantage has distributed 21,675,918 items and the number of kids we’ve reached has grown by triple digits, reaching 18,000 kids one or more times in 2023.

As families feel the lasting impact of hardships brought by the pandemic, KidVantage has strived to bridge gaps. More than 1 in 4 (28%) Washington families cannot afford their basic needs without some kind of assistance. KidVantage takes pride in being that reliable assistance for local families, and with your participation, we can continue to fulfill nearly every request (96.7%) for essential goods.

You can help bridge the gap with your auction donation or sponsorship this spring! Your support of the Take a Chance for Kids event turns into tangible assistance for families and children, who are facing economic insecurity, homelessness, family disruption, and other difficulties. More than 1,000 children receive essential health, care, and safety items from KidVantage every week. This ensures kids are healthier and happier, prepared for success in school and life.
