KidWorks serves some of Orange County’s most under-resourced neighborhoods, providing programs that empower students on their journey from Pre-K through their college years. The outcome is life-ready learners and leaders who are motivated to give back. We invite you to walk with our students as they pursue their dreams of college success.
