Sioux Empire United Way Connecting Kids to Local Activities

Spring is just around the corner, which means many children and their families are gearing up for youth activities all around the Sioux Empire. Children have many options to get involved in extracurricular activities – from sports to theater to camps and more.

Connecting Kids partners with 24 different organizations to promote youth activities and provide financial resources to families who may need assistance. The program will provide hundreds of area students the opportunity to participate in a youth activity this year for free or at a reduced rate.

Local studies show that cost is a factor in children not being able to join the numerous activities available to them across the Sioux Empire. Connecting Kids is designed to ensure every child in grades K-8 has an opportunity for getting involved. Studies also indicate a direct correlation between getting kids involved in activities and their self-esteem, peer relationships and successes later in life. In addition to those benefits, children will learn new activities and skills.

Parents are encouraged to inquire about Connecting Kids certificates when signing their child up for an activity. Another way to obtain a Connecting Kids certificate is by calling Sioux Empire United Way at (605) 336-2095. This program is intended for those families in need of financial assistance, and children can use one certificate per calendar year.
