what families are saying

  • "My 17-year-old son went on a KinCultivate field trip to Portland and absolutely loved it. He usually keeps to himself, but said everyone was friendly β€” and the Albina tour and veggie lunch were a hit. As a multiracial kid, experiences like this have always meant a lot to him. So, from this mama, thank you.”

    April S.

  • β€œCamp For The Culture provided a deep-rooted experience of Black Joy for my son… He felt complete in community, made valuable friendships, and will always remember the positive impact.”

  • "When my family attended our first KinCultivate event, I immediately felt relieved knowing there is an organization creating spaces where my child can feel comfortable in their skin."

    Cleavon S.

  • "KinCultivate has been a powerful experience for my sons. My middle schooler came home from camp talking about cooking, football, and Black businesses... and now he wants to start his own. As a parent, I’m grateful for a space where Black youth can grow, dream, and build community."
