About the Cape Ann Kids Fund

For decades, Cape Ann’s non-profits have worked hard to make the holidays easier for families with limited financial resources. With help from our generous community, we have provided toys, books, pajamas, and gift cards to tens of thousands of families through our combined efforts.

The mission of Action Inc. is to advance economic equity and foster a thriving community on Cape Ann and beyond. Action Inc. offers programs that bring positive change to people’s lives, including affordable housing, homelessness prevention, home heating assistance and energy efficiency, and job training and education.

Pathways for Children provides full-day, year-round education, support, programs, and activities for children and families impacted by economic and social inequities. Their programs serve more than 2,500 individuals from North Shore communities every year.

Wellspring House inspires families and adults on the North Shore to achieve employment and financial security through stable housing, education, job training and career readiness.
