Will YOU Help Us Help
Washington County Youth?


In this season of joy and excitement, we hope you'll put aside all the “to-do’s” for a brief moment and think about the many kids who do not have access to support outside school. 

Why support out-of-school programs?

Watch this 1-minute video and find out!
Help us ensure all Washington County Kids have equal access to quality out of school programs that equip them to achieve their full potential.

"Kids really need support outside school in order to be successful in school. Our school district is struggling to meet that need and we appreciate the help of Washington County Kids in support of our efforts." 
--Kate Grandusky, Forest Grove School Board Chair
"As a parent and public servant, I've seen firsthand how much difference support outside the classroom makes. We all want our community to prosper, and ensuring the success of kids is the best way to do that. The data speaks for itself, out of school time support makes all the difference."
--Lisa Allen, Hillsboro School Board Member
"When I was a teacher at Hillsboro High, I saw how important it was for kids to get excited about real-world projects that were often not possible to cover during the school day and that is why I got involved in Washington County Kids.  These programs keep kids interested and inspire them to think about careers and their future." 
--Don Domes, retired Hillsboro teacher
“As Executive Director and co-founder of a non-profit that delivered mentoring programs for at-risk teens, I was privileged to see hundreds of young people blossom as they transformed their lives. When I saw how many more kids can be served with support from the Portland Children’s Fund, I thought, 'Why doesn't Washington County, where I live, have this, too?’ What a difference we could make." 
--Susan Bender Phelps, CEO, Odyssey Mentoring LLC
"Being involved in an after school program when I was at JB Thomas Middle School made all the difference to me and helped me gain confidence and leadership skills that made it possible to graduate high school and earn two college degrees."
--Alexander Diaz Rios, PCC Board Member
