Each year in the U.S., an estimated 15,780 children between birth and 19 years of age are diagnosed with cancer.

Want to give back and make a difference?
Here are some suggestions to easily raise funds, and have fun too:
- Families: Host a game night, pizza/movie night, or holiday party and encourage donations.
- Schools: Host a bake sale, walk/run-a-thon, an art night, or start a spare change jar.
- Businesses: Donate a portion of sales for a specified period of time.
- Community groups: Host a bike or dance-a-thon, poker/card/casino night, or a pub crawl.


Get creative and have fun!

Fundraising Champions
Kids & Arts is grateful for our Champions that are raising funds to support our programs.
