About Us
Our journey began with Strategic Kids' Co-founders
and continues with you.
In the beginning...
In 2021, Strategic Kids Collaborative emerged with a committed vision: to provide exceptional educational programs for children from disadvantaged backgrounds. Our mission extends beyond individuals, seeking to enhance the broader community. We dedicate our nonprofit to leaving a lasting, positive imprint on the lives of young individuals and society.
​
Growing up in poverty is one of the most significant threats to healthy child development, leading to a greater risk for poor academic achievement, developmental delays, and social and emotional problems.
We intend to use our funds to give low-income children access to game-based enrichment learning so every scholarship recipient can build critical life skills that will impact their future in school, career, and life.
Strategic Kids Collaborative is an extension of Strategic Kids. Our parent organization services STEM after-school programs for public and private schools and homeschool groups and provides staffing support for school districts throughout Orange County, San Diego, Denver, and Seattle.
Since its inception, Strategic Kids has made significant strides, expanding its reach to over 100 schools by 2016 and reaching 400 in 2023. Over 600 programs are currently offered, with sessions comprising approximately eight to 10 classes.
Strategic Kids is built on the principle of teaching life strategies through games.

Where we are today
Through funding initiatives and donations, Strategic Kids Collaborative has awarded numerous full and partial scholarships to children of low-income families. Each family's circumstances are unique, ranging from matters of financial hardship due to job loss, physical and mental disabilities, and natural disasters, among other happenings. We are on a mission to impact the lives of 5,000 low-socioeconomic children annually.
Through a strategic partnership with Strategic Kids and dedicated support from foundations and organizations, Strategic Kids Collaborative endeavors to create a brighter and more empowered future for all children, irrespective of their economic backgrounds.
