KidsOut is a small charity based in Leighton Buzzard which provides a range of services to bring about positive change to thousands of disadvantaged children around the U.K. It uniquely centres on the charities actions rather than the child's circumstances, commonly the Fun and Happiness brought to children. Every year they help over 35,000 children who may have escaped domestic violence, come from difficult backgrounds, have been excluded from school, have a life-limiting disability or be socially or rurally isolated.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Who are KidsOut? - KidsOut )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What we do - KidsOut )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KidsOut | Special Educational Needs - Education & Training Charities | Charity Directory - Charity Choice )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kids Out | Rotary International in Great Britain & Ireland )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KidsOut - Pennies )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KidsOut )〕 The small staff base enables it to remain efficient while growing service coverage. The current CEO of KidsOut is, Gordon Moulds, who was appointed Director of Fundraising in December 2011, moving to the post of Chief Executive from July 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】date=4 December 2012 )〕 The charity is governed by a board of 18 Trustees and is also supported by 18 Ambassadors and 2 Patrons, John Parrott and John Peters.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ambassadors - KidsOut )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Trustees - KidsOut )〕 ==History== In 1989, John Moores, who was the founder of the Littlewoods Organisation, developed an event which he called “The Liverpool Annual Motorists Outing for Disabled Children.” This was organised by staff at the Littlewoods head office in Liverpool. To expand this event out across the U.K Littlewoods needed to link in with a suitable organisation. His daughter, Lady Grantchester, spoke with Peter Jarvis, a Rotarian of Kingston, to meet with John Moores. John Moores agreed to organise a trail day out in Kingston June 1990, if successful Littlewoods would support the rollout across the country. The event proved to be a great success and the rollout of Days Out soon followed. On June 9, 1992, 34 Rotary Clubs throughout England, Wales and Scotland had successful and enjoyable outings. Peter coined the name “KidsOut” and devised a logo. In time, the Moores family sold Littlewoods and the link with KidsOut was lost. In 1999, KidsOut was registered as a charity and Rotarian Peter Jarvis became one of the founding trustees.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=http://www.rotaryaberystwyth.org.uk/13_kids_out.html|title=13_kids_out|publisher=rotaryaberystwyth.org.uk|accessdate=2014-05-13 )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Where we came from - KidsOut )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KidsOut」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
