Upcoming 2026 Events
Workers’ Memorial Day
Held each year on April 28, Workers’ Memorial Day honors the workers who have been killed or injured at work.
The day was first observed in the United States in 1989. As well as a day to remember and mourn, it is a day to call attention to workplace safety issues and advocate for greater safety for everyone.
Kids’ Chance sees firsthand the effect a worker’s death or injury can have on the entire family, especially the children. Finances change rapidly. Future plans become unsure. And sending a child to college under these circumstances can be tough or even impossible.
Kids’ Chance scholarships help the children of these workers achieve their educational goals and make a brighter and more productive future possible.
Kids’ Chance invites our community to join us in observing this day by visibly standing with the workers and their families.
2026 Scholarships
Kids’ Chance of Florida (KCFL) provides college scholarships to the children of Florida workers who have been severely or fatally injured in a workplace-related accident. KCFL awards as many scholarships as the current year’s funding will allow.
The 2026 Scholarship Portal will open in February of 2026 and will close at the end of June 2026. KCFL has one scholarship cycle per year. In July the Scholarship Committee communicates with all of the recipients who submits a renewal or new application.
