In February of 2007, ten year-old Tyler Page of Discovery Bay, California  was inspired while watching an episode of Oprah when he learned that children, just like himself, were being sold by their own parents into labor.  Picturing himself in their shoes is all it took for him to leap into action.  He wanted to raise just $240 which he learned would keep one child out of trafficking for an entire year.  Within the first year his $240 quickly turned into $38,000.  Human trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, harbouring, or receipt of people for the purpose of exploitation. It is estimated to be a $5 to $9 billion-a-year industry. For children, exploitation may include forced prostitution, illicit international adoption, trafficking for early marriage, or recruitment as child soldiers, beggars, for sports, or for religious cults.

In doing so, we build lifelong qualities of self-confident, reliance and accountability in our young adults.

Kids Helping Kids Leadership Academy, Inc. (Kids Helping Kids)
is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization located in Discovery Bay, California.

Kids Helping Kids is a unique organization that evolved from a 10 year-old's simple idea and big heart to raise $240 in order to keep one Ghanaian child out of trafficking into a fundraising and leadership movement for global transformation.

In February of 2007 ten year-old Tyler Page got inspired while watching an episode of Oprah where he learned that children, just like himself, were being sold by their own parents into labor. Picturing himself in their shoes is all it took for him to leap into action. He wanted to raise just $240 which he learned would keep one child out of trafficking for an entire year. Little did he know that his intent to raise $240, would begin a legacy of hope and inspiration.

Within the first year his $240 quickly turned into $38,000. His desire to help children he has never met on the other side of the globe is what inspired his family & friends to start Kids Helping Kids Leadership Academy, Inc. His innocent but powerful desire to help others has become contagious with whom all he shares the story with. With each fundraiser you can feel an excitement and joy that permeates the air as self esteem rises inside all the children and adults who volunteer. The success of Kids Helping Kids Leadership Academy, Inc. is only possible by the many volunteers, supporters, donations & sponsors that have, and continue to contribute to this global movement.

We provide leadership experiences with children through volunteerism and fundraising. The children helping are learning leadership skills, gaining confidence & wisdom, and those receiving are feeling loved, getting needs met and tasting hope. We fulfill monetary and moral support to those in need.
