2025 A Kid Again Impact Report
This mother’s quote best illustrates the meaningful impact you helped make for children with life-threatening conditions and their families.
I will always be a medical mom, but when I'm at an Adventure, I'm just a parent. A Kid Again brings joy to our days, happiness when life is heavy, and peace to relax and just be ourselves.
You helped create so many never-thought-possible experiences in 2025!

PARTNERSHIP
This year, we expanded our partnership with Kenny Moore II of the Indianapolis Colts and his foundation, Love One. Kenny shows up with compassion and a genuine commitment to ensuring families raising children with life-threatening conditions feel seen, remembered, and valued. Through a generous gift from the Love One Foundation, more families will experience Adventures in 2026. Moments that support emotional well-being and mental health long after the day itself.
We are deeply grateful for Kenny’s continued leadership and for the Love One Foundation’s partnership in creating hope and joy that lasts.

ACCESSIBILITY
Our Birthday Bash Adventure at The Henry Ford Museum became more accessible this year! The museum added an additional train and ensured there was full wheelchair accessibility so that every family and child could participate. The Henry Ford Museum also generously provided complimentary train rides for every family in attendance, enhancing the inclusivity and the overall impact of the Adventure.
One of my kids said this was one of the top five days of their life!

SPREADING KINDNESS
With the Support of the Walter Family Foundation and the Center for Human Kindness, we launched Kindness Kits, age-appropriate care packages that enrolled Central Ohio families can request up to twice annually when their child is admitted into the hospital.
A Kid Again has made it possible for my child to feel like a “normal kid."

COMMUNITY
Our mission is possible because of our generous and hard-working volunteers. This year, GPD Group and 50 of its volunteers fully funded and coordinated the Ramseyer Farms Adventure. A Kid Again families experienced the pumpkin patch, hay rides, s'mores, a petting zoo, and more!
We were able to get out and explore and enjoy more than we had in a while, knowing that so much of the day had already been considered for us. A Kid Again is truly a magical organization, and I hold it so dear to my heart!

GRATITUDE
The University of Cincinnati Law School chose A Kid Again for their charity to support during their annual Barrister's Ball. Thanks to their fundraising efforts throughout the year, we received a $9,000 donation.
This was the first event that [our daughter] has been to and truly thoroughly and authentically enjoyed herself and was so happy throughout. The amount of happiness and freeness we saw in her today nearly had me to tears.
New Adventure
In November, 600 family members attended our first Adventure at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey!
953
That's the number of new volunteers who joined us in 2025. Their dedication and generosity elevated our Adventures by enriching the carefree day-of experience for families.
We love the volunteers and the Adventures so much. You helped us through some pretty rough struggles and gave us hope and something to look forward to.
