                                    KSS started as an all volunteer organization. In 2010, in order to scale to reach
                                    more kids, KSS began developing organizational capacity for growth. This expansion
                                    was funded by a two year grant from a generous anonymous donor.

                                            Anne Byrne joined KSS as its first Executive Director in April 2010. “Their gain.
                                            Our loss.” So summarized a Denver Post reporter in a story about Anne Byrne’s decision
                                            to move to Arizona as the first executive director for Kids Sports Stars. In Denver,
                                            Anne served as executive director of Summer Scholars, a non-profit dedicated to
                                            helping low-income students make major academic strides during summer. "I look forward
                                            to the opportunity to take KSS programs to scale,” says Anne. “I am excited to join
                                            the KSS team and continue the amazing work done so far. Preventing childhood obesity
                                            and promoting active healthy lifestyles are key issues for young people, and KSS
                                            has the right tools and determination in place to make a difference."  Click here
