Alice's Kids is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization founded by Ron Fitzsimmons and Laura Fitzsimmons Peters in 2011 in memory of their mother. It provides targeted assistance to children in grades K-12 in the US.
Alice's Kids focuses on providing basic necessities, school supplies, services, and entertainment for the children of low-income families. Company policy implies that children should not guess that helping them is a charity.
In most cases, a teacher, coach, or social worker nominates a child who has a specific need.Barton, April (May 24, 2021). "Knos a child in need? Charity provides one-time gifts for VT kids". USA Today Network. Burlington Free Press (Burlington, Vermont). p. A2. If approved, the grant funding is electronically sent to the nominator, who then uses the funding to take care of the child's needs.
Alice's Kids has worked with celebrities like Steve Carell and Patton Oswalt.
