At Kids Alive one of our goals is to help every child experience emotional and physical well-being so they can thrive for decades to come. One way we tackle this goal is through our Supplemental Nutrition Program in the Dominican Republic, designed for children not growing properly based on standard global growth charts.
Each child is assessed to see if they need extra care through our program. Along with meeting dietary needs, social and healthcare workers provide special care to uncover the root causes of their challenges, ensuring they can thrive.
Many children in the program have better attention spans and increased participation at school and eventually no longer need to be in the program because their health has improved so much! This is one way Kids Alive supports the physical needs of children so they can grow emotionally and spiritually!

Scavenger hunt anyone? Kids at Kids Alive Lebanon enjoyed a scavenger hunt filled with riddles, and with each correct guess to the riddle, they got to answer a set of fun questions. Giggles and excitement sparked throughout the kids and staff!
As our team in Lebanon continues to work through challenges in the country, they have continued to find ways to bring joy and support to students and staff. Activities like this give kids and staff a chance to have fun and strengthen their problem-solving skills and ability to work effectively on a team. Practical skills like these are just some of the ways the Kids Alive programs prepare children to be healthy, thriving adults!
At Kids Alive we are deeply committed to justice and healing, walking alongside children on their journeys toward restoration.
Lucia (pseudonym for safety), a 14-year-old girl, is a powerful example of this commitment. In her own home, she experienced exploitation and betrayal. Recognizing the dangers she faced, the Kids Alive Peru staff were monitoring her situation. When a critical incident occurred, immediate action was taken to remove Lucia from harm.
With the support of local authorities, Kids Alive provided Lucia with emotional and psychological care while pursuing justice against her abuser. After a long and persistent process, this past year, her abuser was sentenced and held accountable.
Today, Lucia is thriving—pursuing her education and building a bright future. Her story is one of incredible resilience and hope, demonstrating the power of care, support, and justice to help a young girl overcome adversity and embrace her potential.
"I feel excited and grateful. I never thought that this moment could come, but I thank God. God gave me the opportunity to celebrate my 15th birthday."
7 girls who turned 15 in 2024 celebrated their Quince Años at the Oasis School at Kids Alive Guatemala. This celebration is a significant milestone for girls in Latin America and marks the beauty and grace these girls have grown in despite their past hardships.
The celebration includes worship, a time of reflection and prayer, the giving of rings to signify this important moment, a special lunch, and, of course, dancing! This day shines a bright hope for the girls' futures and celebrates all they have done to heal from their past. #ImpactThatHeals

At Kids Alive Haïti, we have implemented a physical education class to help children experience emotional and physical well-being–one of our core goals! This class allows kids to get outside and play organized games and sports once a week.
Activities like this help promote healthy growth in kids of all ages. Students develop motor coordination and flexibility, as well as get to enjoy time moving their bodies and getting energy out in a safe space. At Kids Alive, not only do we want kids to have a life-changing relationship with God, but we also want them to thrive in their families and communities. By creating a space for them that is emotionally safe and promotes their physical well-being, we are helping them reach this goal of having a thriving, vibrant life!
