IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Financial aid, known as the Active Kids Fund, removes barriers by reducing Metro Parks program registration fees by 50-75% for hundreds of qualifying families. Through the Active Kids Fund, Children can enjoy activities such as swimming classes, nature education, sports leagues and performing arts lessons. The fund helps youth who otherwise would not have the financial means to get active, build skills, make healthy choices, expand personal expression and experience scientific discovery. Verification of income and proof of residency are required. Every year requests increase and Metro Parks and the Foundation work together to meet the need. In, 2017 610 families (2,084 members, primarily children) were approved through the Active Kids Fund.
