The Newport Kite Festival runs on community passion, volunteer dedication, and supporters like you. We're not a big nonprofit with grant funding - we're neighbors keeping a tradition alive.
Where Your Money Goes:100% to actual festival expenses. No paid staff, no administrative overhead, no nonprofit bureaucracy. Just real costs for real community magic.
Why It Matters:Without community support, this 40-year tradition disappears. It's that simple. Help us prove that grassroots community organizations can still thrive.
