Founder's Heart
Colorful Kidz was created to transform the lives of disadvantaged children through the power of vibrant, personalized spaces. I believe that every child deserves a sanctuary of their own—a place where hope grows and dreams find room to breathe.
A Personal Message from Our Founder, Caren Berry
The idea for Colorful Kidz began after a trip to India where I volunteered at an orphanage. I returned home inspired to do more to help children.
Through my church I learned about a family transitioning from a shelter into public housing. While the church could provide basic furniture, the home still lacked the personal touches that make a house feel like a home.
​
The family had two young boys who loved baseball and airplanes. Drawing on my professional expertise as an interior designer and newfound mission, I took on the project of transforming their bedroom into a personalized sanctuary that reflected their interests and personalities.
​
When those boys saw their room for the first time, their faces lit up with pure joy. In that moment, I knew this was what I was meant to do. That day, Colorful Kidz was born in 2021.
​
Today Colorful Kidz is a 501(c) 3 children's nonprofit. We have a 1000 sq. foot retail space and workshop located in East Sandwich, Massachusetts. Our mission is to create room makeovers for children and teenagers in need on Cape Cod.

And we're just getting started! Join us on this journey with more than a hundred volunteers and hundreds of donors inspired to support their community on Cape Cod!
