Right now with kids. They don't need gimics, they need raises and community support.

Either subsidize their housing, or out-right pay the rent up to a certain limit.

In Korea, my apartment was given to my outright
In Shijiazhuang, my rent was added to my pay.
In Nanjing/Suzhou, it was a reimbursement
In Shanghai, it was an allowance up to a certain amount.

Something to consider here.

The middle school a few blocks away has it on their electronic sign out front.
I'm subbing there tomorrow for 8th grade math.
Have a happy TA week!
