Philanthropy – A Part of Everyday Business
The America's Kitchen Foundation was established in 2005 because giving and helping others is a core value of our organization, and we consider it to be a part of our everyday business. The mission of the foundation is to raise funds and awareness of issues effecting families and children, and to support programs that have a long lasting impact on a local and global scale. Coins Helping Kids™ and the Scholarship House™ were also created by the AK Foundation to help further expand our initiatives of helping families and children. Through monetary, in-kind and volunteer support (employee volunteers are not compensated) the foundation continues to experience tremendous growth.

Coins Helping Kids™
Imagine being able to make a positive impact everyday in your community. Coins Helping Kids™ is a unique opportunity for consumers to make a difference through purchases. A donation will be made to this fund when any America's Kitchen branded products as well as your favorite relaxation kits from Do Not Disturb, in home spa products are purchased. Do Not Disturb products are available at www.dodisturb.com or at select retailers. For more information please visit www.coinshelpingkids.org.

Scholarship House™
FACT: 70% of Foster Care Youth say they want to attend college, but only 37% actually do so, and no more than 3% attain their bachelor's degree. The Scholarship House™ was created to help provide financial support and housing to foster youth who desire to continue their post secondary education. America's Kitchen believes in the power of an education, and understands that knowledge can provide much needed opportunities in becoming a self sustaining adult, as well as a valuable citizen in a local community.
