Kids Care Week, celebrated the third week of October, recognizes the power of kids to reach out and help others in their community. During the week, young people focus their compassion on a specific social issue through a service project. Kids Care Week culminates on Make a Difference Day, a national day of doing good sponsored by HandsOn Network and USA Weekend.

Kids Care Week 2008

In 2008, in recognition of the 10th anniversary of the Kids Care Clubs Party Pals project and Quaker's Birthday Parties with a Purpose, 91 clubs received $33,000 in mini-grants and  implemented "parties with a purpose!" Kids Care Clubs across America, created special parties for those overlooked on their birthdays or on other holidays.

Kids Care Clubs Party Pals can be done throughout the year.  Check out the Party Pals project here.
