Kids Play International, Inc.

Vision: A world in which girls and boys have the same opportunities to achieve their fullest potential and participate in and contribute to all aspects of life. Since 2010 Kids Play International (KPI), a nonprofit founded by 3x Olympian Tracy Evans, has provided successful year-round gender equity programs combining less familiar sport (Baseball, Athletics, Lacrosse, etc.), our 5 Play Fair life skills and the Olympic values in the harshest, most imbalanced environments; post-genocide Rwanda and Cambodia. KPI’s vision is to build equitable global communities where everyone’s contributions are valued. Sport has the powerful ability to reduce oppressive restrictions in society and provides a unique environment where harmful gender norms can be renegotiated. Our programs empower youth to be activists in breaking the intergenerational cycle of systemic gender discrimination, inequality and violence.
