💙 605 kids 💚

During the 2025-2026 school year, 605 Seacoast kids had access to sports, camps, arts, and other quality out-of-school activities through the ? card program.

That’s a 20% increase from the year before. Every number represents a child getting to try something new, build confidence, make friends, or simply have fun.

We’re so grateful to the families, partners, donors, and supporters who make up our collective. Thank you for making access possible!

Did you know? In an American Camp Association Youth Development Outcomes Study, 70% of parents reported their child gained self-confidence at camp, and 92% of campers said camp helped them feel good about themselves.

🎒 A new school year means new classes, new routines, and new opportunities for kids to find something they love outside the classroom.

But for some Seacoast families, the cost of sports, camps, lessons, and activities can make those opportunities out of reach.

The KEY Collective helps remove barriers through the ? card program, giving local kids access to activities regardless of their family’s income by partnering with over 50 youth organizations across the Seacoast.

Help make sure cost doesn’t keep a kid on the sidelines this school year. Donate today: keycollective.org/give-now

Every kid should be able to participate without feeling like they’re different.

For many ? card parents and kids, the anonymity of the program is what makes all the difference.

“My daughter doesn’t feel different than her teammates for having an ? card.” That’s what access without stigma looks like.

DID YOU KNOW?

Sometimes the biggest barrier isn't applying for help—it's having to explain why you need it.

That's why the ? card was designed to work differently. Families apply once, and then simply present their card at participating partners.

No extra paperwork. No explaining. No stigma.

Just kids getting to participate.
