Kristen's Play Cousins Collective

Hi, I’m Kristen Williams, CO-of Play Cousins Collective. We began this work because we saw a need to create spaces where Black children can truly thrive, where they are celebrated, not tolerated. At Play Cousins, we make sure our kids can grow big, speak loud, move freely, and learn about who they are and where they come from. We work to ensure that all families are strengthened by the power of community—because we know it takes a village to raise a child.

On Thursday, September 12th, you can help us build that village by giving during Give for Good. We’re raising funds for Youth Enrichment programs and crisis support for parents. We want our kids in spaces where they are the main character, free from the microaggressions and limiting environments they often face elsewhere. Your donation directly supports our after-school programs, where children are celebrated, and families are uplifted.
