🌳 Operation Active Kids
Growing stronger minds, bodies, and communities.
At Operation Active Kids (O.A.K.), we believe every child deserves the chance to grow healthy, confident, and strong — in body, mind, and heart. Your donation helps us reach youth across South Carolina through three key areas of impact designed to keep kids active, connected, and supported at every stage of growth.
🏀 1. Recess Activity Kits
Bringing play and positivity to our youngest learners.
Each O.A.K. Recess Activity Kit is delivered to elementary schools and filled with playground balls, jump ropes, and activities that encourage movement, teamwork, and fun. Along with each kit, we share a powerful message about growing healthier and stronger — and remind children to be kind to themselves and others.
💪 2. Scholarship Program
Opening doors to active opportunities.
Our O.A.K. Scholarship Program provides funding for children to participate in recreation and extracurricular sports that keep them moving, motivated, and thriving. From soccer fields to dance studios, your support ensures every child — regardless of financial barriers — has the chance to belong, build confidence, and discover their potential.
🧠 3. PlaySmart Program
Educating and empowering student athletes, parents, and communities.
Through our PlaySmart Program, we teach about the risks and dangers of opioid misuse, especially among student athletes recovering from injury.
Partnering with schools, churches, and community organizations, we use the PlaySmart Prevention Playbook to help youth make informed choices that keep them healthy on and off the playing field.
🌟 Your Impact
Every gift makes a difference — from a single recess ball to a full-year scholarship or a playbook that could save a life.
Together, we’re building a movement of healthier, stronger, and more connected communities across South Carolina.
