Building a Healthy Future
for the Kids of Winooski
What We Do
Fight For Kids Foundation strives to find the best ways to teach kids about all aspects of their health so they are equipped to make better decisions about the paths they take in life. Through our holistic health programs, we work one-on-one with youth in Winooski, VT. We also fund and actualize projects that serve our youth and the greater community.
-
Body, Mind, & Spirit
At FKF, our program starts in the boxing ring. In the ring, we empower our youth by helping them to find and build their strength and resilience—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
-
Providing Guidance
As mentors, we talk with kids about social pressures and how to handle real life scenarios. We work with kids to improve their confidence and inner strength so they can make healthy decisions.
-
Building Community
Connection and community support healthy decisions. We host special events and efforts that encourage health and community connections.

Our Current Project
Winooski Youth Center
In July of this year, Fight for Kids has acquired the space of the old Centerpoint School on 94 W Canal Street in Winooski. Renovations for this project have begun due in part to funding through the Lowes Hometowns grant.
This larger space will guarantee that we can run classroom and group based programs to help engage the kids of Winooski.
To make the new Winooski Youth Center a safe and supportive place for our kids, we need the support of our community. From fundraising to supplies to volunteers we rely on your support. Find out how you can get involved today.
