We turn donated bulk cards into free custom packs for kids who just want to enjoy the hobby.
How it works
The idea is simple: people donate the bulk cards sitting in their closets, volunteers sort and repackage them into fun custom packs, and we get them into the hands of keiki for free.
Collectors and shops send in bulk commons, uncommons, and duplicates — the cards that usually just pile up.
Volunteers sort the donations and build custom packs designed to feel exciting to open — surprises included.
Kids request a pack and get the joy of opening cards — no scalping, no markups, no barrier to entry.
Why we exist
Card collecting got a lot more expensive and a lot harder for kids to enjoy. KeikiRips exists to give that simple joy back — the rip of a wrapper, the hope of a lucky pull — to the keiki who'd light up the most.
Get involved
Whether you've got a shoebox of extras or a kid who'd love a pack, here's where to start.
Clearing out duplicates or bulk? Send them our way and they'll make a kid's day.
For a keiki who'd love the joy of opening cards. Free, always — just tell us where to send it.
Good to know
Yes. KeikiRips never charges keiki or families for a pack. The whole point is to remove the cost barrier that keeps kids out of the hobby.
Bulk Pokémon cards are the heart of it — commons, uncommons, duplicates, and the extras most collectors don't need. Down the road we'd love to expand into other collectibles too.
We're based on Oʻahu and focused on local keiki for now, with drop-off and delivery on island. Mail-in donations from anywhere are welcome.
KeikiRips is a grassroots community project run by volunteers. Donations are gifts of cards rather than tax-deductible charitable contributions. We'll update this page if that ever changes.
