Each year, the Frank Ski Kids Foundation hosts one of its finest events of the year, the annual wine tasting and live auction. The 4th Annual was held on Sunday, December 16, 2007 at the private residence of the chairman and president.
Each year in July, the Foundation organizes a science competition for children ages 9-11 or 12-14. Entrants are required to create a project or prepare a submission on an assigned topic or theme. The competition calls for logic and common sense, as well as imagination.
Now in its sixth year, the Frank Ski Kids Foundation continually aims to expose children to their future. Kids Week is a week of live broadcasts from locations dedicated to children. Each day is packed with excitement and filled with activities to entertain children of all ages. With the generosity of corporate sponsorship and personal contributions, the Foundation provides children living in and around metro Atlanta with safe, educational and irresistible fun.
