KIDS ALLEY is the main program of One Accord Inc., non-profit faith-based organization reaching out to inner-city children and their families with weekly programs. Our children live in the city of Camden, New Jersey considered to be the most violent and impoverished city in our country. 65% of its population is at-risk children. Kids Alley has been reaching out to the children in Camden, New Jersey since 1998 with a mission, a vision, and a promise.

Kids Alley started with its original Saturday morning program, focusing on children ages 3-12 and their families. Our Saturday morning program is a FUN, high energy presentation consisting of a unique and creative blend of games, music, drama, puppetry, illustrated Bible lessons, the creative and technical arts and prayer. This program is designed to embrace the children with God’s love and to empower them with practical teaching for victorious daily living. The Kids Alley program ensures that all its children actively participate and every child feels like a winner. After the program, each child leaves with a nutritious bagged lunch.

Our ministry is founded on key Biblical principles and is the emphasis in all we do. They are stated as follows:

We believe in God’s unconditional love for all of us.
We believe in the power of God’s Word.
We believe in the value of knowledge and education.

On any given Saturday, you can see the youth busily involved in the preparation and execution of the Saturday morning program from 9:00am to 12:45pm. These youth were required by their club to serve only 2 hours but they have gone over and above the call of duty to serve the children of Camden with enthusiasm and passion.

Kids Alley Choir and Dance
The performing and creative arts have always played a major role in all the Kids Alley programs. Praise and worship is incorporated in all that we do. The children are encouraged to express themselves artistically and to use their talents in a positive way. The Kids Alley choir was formed to give the children who are interested in learning more in depth musical techniques as well as supporting one another as a team. The choir meets on Wednesdays from 5:30 to 6:30pm.

Children are also involved in preparing special dance presentations throughout the year. Volunteer dance instructors help the children develop in this area.

If you are interested in volunteering with the performing and creative arts at Kids Alley, please contact us. The Kids Alley Choir is available to bring their “Imagine Hope” Tour to your church, organization or events.
