What is RightStart4Kids?


We're a non-profit organization that focuses on initiatives that help children globally start life out right from the womb. Only when children's bodies grow healthy, do we have the opportunity to grow their minds. With the help of our donors' kind hearts, we're able to fulfill our mission ABC focused on body and mind.

  • Avail prenatal vitamins to pregnant women to prevent common newborn medical illnesses.
  • Bring access to educational opportunities utilizing inexpensive, readily available learning technologies and wellness programs to underprivileged kids 5 - 12 years.
  • Create continuous learning opportunities for hospitalized kids that do not have access to traditional schooling, utilizing inexpensive, readily available learning technologies.



Why is it important for me to help RightStart4Kids?

Each one of us can contribute to helping kids grow healthy bodies and provide them with opportunities to grow their minds. By partnering with us, we can help to ensure kids will be born without illnesses. As kids grow up, RighStart4Kids can help provide educational tools utilizing inexpensive, readily available learning technologies.
