| Kids 'N Community Foundation As “The Heart of the Carolina Hurricanes,” the Kids ‘N Community Foundation strives to meet the health and educational needs of underserved populations in our community through programming and financial assistance to local, youth-oriented organizations. Since the establishment of the non-profit Foundation in 1997, over $12.5 million in cash and in-kind services has been awarded to non-profit organizations that focus on enhancing the lives of youth in our community. With the ongoing support of our annual special events, Hurricanes players, staff and the corporate community, the Kids ‘N Community Foundation is able to fund many causes including scholarship programs, youth hockey initiatives, education and literacy efforts, health programs and the arts. During the 2014-15 season, we donated $576,000 to 29 deserving North Carolina children's nonprofit charities. 2014 GOAL Grants - East Durham Children's Initiative - The Hill Center and John Avery Boys & Girls Club - Boys & Girls Club of Wake County - Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina - YMCA of the Triangle - InterAct of Wake County 2015 Game Changer Grants $5,000 - Activate Good - Assistance League of the Triangle - HopeLine - Museum of Life and Science - Wake County 4-H Youth Development Program $10,000 - Autism Society of North Carolina - Genesis Home - Playworks NC - StepUp Ministry - Wake Education Partnership $15,000 - Children's Flight of Hope - Durham Nativity School - Girl Scouts - NC Coastal Pines - State Games of North Carolina - Read and Feed 2015 Future Canes Grants - Carolina Lightning Hockey - Coastal Carolina Hockey Association - Defending the Blue Line - Raleigh Youth Hockey Association - Triad Youth Hockey Alliance - Triangle Special Hockey Association - Triangle Youth Hockey Association - Winston-Salem Youth Hockey Association |
