Did you know that children who volunteer are twice as likely to volunteer as adults? We do! And we find this statistic so compelling that we created a new program to involve young children in service. Introducing… Kids Care Clubs.   

Hands On Nashville runs a club-based model designed to involve more children in service. Kids Care Clubs (KCC) are groups of young people (elementary and middle school-aged) who work together to help others in their communities and around the world. Clubs are formed in any of the many groups your child is already involved in such as schools, churches, synagogues, and other community-based organizations. Hands On Nashville serves as the local resource for area Kids Care Clubs, working with adult leaders to answer questions and connect the clubs with a wide variety of hands-on volunteer opportunities, curriculum materials, support resources and much more! The best part of all is that registering your KCC is absolutely FREE! Our desire is to serve as a tool to help better equip you and your children to make a positive impact in your community.

Some of the benefits of becoming a KCC administrator:

• Access to a wide variety of service ideas and supplemental curriculum materials.
• Access to national and local KCC newsletters.
• Opportunity to partner with other local KCCs for larger service projects.
• Communication with other local KCC facilitators.
• Technical and functional support from Hands On Nashville
   

All you need is:

• a group of kids, ages 5-13 years old, who meet regularly.
• an adult facilitator.
• the desire to make a difference in your neighborhood, community, and world.
