Spirituality for Kids (SFK) is a unique educational program for children. This fun and interactive program provides children with many practical tools necessary for handling a multitude of life challenges.
Pop icon, Madonna, whose children are enrolled in the program, is one of the most prominent supporters of Spirituality for Kids. Recently, Madonna gave the keynote speech to a crowd of nearly 1,000 people including government officials, celebrities and other prominent luminaries at a special event for Spirituality for Kids.
SFK is unique because it delivers proactive life solutions before problems appear in a child's life. The program utilizes accelerated learning techniques in a fun environment where hands-on activities are part of a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach combining the arts, science and the wisdom of Kabbalah.
Contributions from the event will go to the Spirituality for Kids Outreach Program, which identifies at-risk children and their families and gives them the tools needed to lead productive and fulfilling lives. Here, children and parents are given new life skills.
They are no longer educated about the laws of the street: rather, they are empowered with the spiritual laws of the universe. The program teaches children that they have the power to shape their own destinies.
