What We Do

Kids R First is a Reston, Virginia based 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to the education and helping kids (grades K-12) from families of limited financial means. We provide the necessary school supplies for underserved children so they may receive the same opportunities as their peers.

Kids R First created a unique model allowing us to provide custom orders for every grade level at every participating schools, ensuring each student receives supplies to be successful, beginning the very first day of school. This allows us to utilize every dollar donated for specifically needed supplies and eliminate unnecessary supplies found in made-for-all kits in retail stores. The school supply needs of a kindergartener are far different from the school supply needs of a high school senior.
