What Fairplay Forward Inc does
Mission
Promote and advocate for reduced screen time and enhanced online safety and privacy for children and is committed to protecting children from the risks of commercial screens and dangerous online environments.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
On its FY2024 return the organization reported starting a significant new program.
Worked to influence the outcome of specific legislative proposals at the state and federal levels that may affect the online safety and privacy of minors including advancing the passage of the federal Kids Online Safety Act KOSA that was reintroduced in the U.S. Senate in May 2025. If KOSA becomes law it will be the first major federal legislation to protect children online in over 25 years. We advanced the mission by contacting and urging the public to contact legislators for the purposes of opposing supporting modifying or proposing legislation relating to childrens online safety and privacy. We prepared and distributed educational materials urging interested stakeholders and the public to oppose or support legislation that affects these issues. We mobilized interested stakeholders and coordinated advocacy efforts with other nonprofit organizations that share our public interest goals.: Education and Outreach. We also will engaged in education and outreach to interested stakeholders and the public to promote knowledge and awareness regarding the risks to children of excessive screen time and exploitative online business practices.
