Who we are *
At Kids Got Rights, we're turning stop motion, 3D animation, and bold visual storytelling into tools that amplify kids’ voices in the fight for their basic human rights — safety, education, home, and dignity.
👁️ Every frame is a protest.
🎞️ Every movement is a message.
🧒 Every child has the right to be heard.
Our animation isn’t just art — it’s resistance.
From hand-molded stop motion scenes of displacement to digital worlds where kids rewrite broken systems, we’re using imagination as a force for justice.
✨ Because when children see themselves as heroes in their own stories, they begin to believe:
“I have rights. I have power.”
I want to ask for your support for Kids Got Rights. This elegant hybrid-animated documentary production introduces children to their human rights in a way that’s empowering, educational, and unforgettable. It’s perfect for schools, libraries, and families who believe in raising awareness in our global community. The goal is to establish an ethical universalism that safeguards children from exploitation.

About Kids Got Rights
We will deliver riveting live interviews with children from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds worldwide. Their responses will span from the innocent and naïve to the remarkably sophisticated, offering a profound glimpse into the mysterious realm of children's minds. Following these interviews, five powerful animations will burst onto the screen, designed to inspire and uplift, crafting a visionary roadmap to empower kids to break free from the chains of abuse.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 1 billion children experience some form of violence each year, which encompasses physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, as well as neglect. With 70-85% knowing their abuser. In Pakistan, over 11 million children under 11 are laborers. Today in the U.S.A., major corporations in the food production industry hire kids under 13 years old. The UK reports that 1 in 200 adults is a pedophile, with over 16,000 child abuse cases recorded in England in 2012.
We can give children the tools to know what abuse is, what their rights are, and what they can do to protect themselves.
