The History
Caring For Kids with Cancer was created by a high school student. This student was the type of kid that once he got an idea in his head, he did everything in his power to make it a reality. Cancer was no stranger to the student as it has a long line in his family history. He first hand saw the disease tear apart his family and made a promise from that Christmas morning on, to take a stand against cancer. So with one simple of act of charity, CFKC was born. It is an every growing community of young people and adults working together to get rid of something that always seems to bring grief and sadness into this world. With this, CFKC adopted the motto of “Changing the world, one smile at a time”.
The Mission
CFKC works to make a brighter future for the kids that are affected with cancer and to also help their families deal with the struggles that childhood cancer can bring. CFKC is unique in the fact that it focuses more on the kid rather than the cancer. CFKC supports research and believes that in order to beat the disease, research is the very key that is needed to find the cure. It supports funds for this research but however it is not our main goal. We focus more on the child of today. Like we said research is great, but sadly those of today will never see its wonders. CFKC realizes this and works to bring joy and happiness to the kids sitting in those very rooms now. We want them to know that someone cares about them, and that there are people out there, that have their back. We work to give them gifts like teddy bears and t-shirts, which serve as a physical reminder of the love of many others. We work also to help their families like with gas cards in order to allow them to spend more time and thought on their kids, instead of financial worries. We do this all because we want to help others. Helping others drive every action that the organization does. So if you want to make a difference and make the world a better place, then join us as we change the world, one smile at a time.
