Welcome
The first Kids’ Chance chapter was started in Georgia in 1988. Since then forty-seven states have organized Kids’ Chance programs that are actively providing need-based scholarships to the families of seriously injured workers. Kids’ Chance organizations have collectively awarded over 7,300 educational scholarships since their inception and distributed over $24,000,000 in scholarship funds to workers’ families.
​
Who can Illinois Kids’ Chance help?
  • The 18-year old Illinois girl who dreamed of becoming a legal assistant or cosmetologist, who cannot now attend a vocational/technical school to learn a trade.
  • The Illinois high school graduate who wanted to be the first in the family to obtain a college degree and now finds the college doors closed.
  • The Illinois college student who began the goal to obtain a college degree but now has no funds to complete the journey.
  • In 2015, Kids' Chance of Illinois awarded its first scholarship of $2,500. To-date, Kids' Chance of Illinois has awarded 246 scholarships.  These scholarships have all been made possible by the generous donations from our supporters!!
Our 5th Annual Alton Golf Fundraiser took place on a warm and beautiful blue-skied day on the Spencer T. Olin Golf Course in Alton, Illinois.  Valued sponsors and community partners—as well as amazingly generous individuals and golf course staff—helped make this year’s event the best yet! 

Overflowing with gratitude, we are pleased to share the proceeds that were raised at this golf outing will provide scholarships for nine students to attend a college or university.  These scholarships are awarded to children of seriously injured or fatally injured workers on the job.

We know that this would not have been possible without the support of many. Together we truly do more and have a greater impact in the lives of those who need help most. So, thank you to all of you that came out to play and a special big thank you to our generous sponsors.
