Story

For more than 30 years, Hortons Kids has empowered children to graduate from high school ready for college, career, and life. Building and maintaining relationships in Ward 8 and providing personalized supports have always been the core of what we do.

These have also been our guiding principles as we pivot programs and services in response to COVID-19. The hundreds of children and families we serve have been adversely impacted by the virus and related closures, and they will be for some time. Hortons Kids is providing robust virtual services, ensuring that their most basic needs are met and that children continue to progress academically.

Join Hortons Kids in supporting children and families in SE DC . Especially in the face of one of the biggest challenges our community has ever seen, we are committed to shaping an equitable future. We work relentlessly to help children and their families overcome systemic barriers to food security, gainful employment, quality education, housing, and health care. With your support, Hortons Kids can cultivate the talent and potential of every child.

Throughout the pandemic, we have been inspired by the resilience, perseverance, strength, and deep sense of community from the residents of Wellington Park and Stanton Oaks. We are honored to be a part of their story, and hope you will be, too. Will you join us?
