Because No One Budgets for Cancer
In Kansas City, more than 200 families annually are thrust into the reality of pediatric cancer. Beyond the medical toll, the financial strain is immediate. With limited paid time off and the demands of treatment, many families lose a vital source of income exactly when they need it most.
Supporting Kids Foundation (SKF) was created to ensure that financial hardship never keeps a parent away from their child’s bedside. As an all-volunteer nonprofit, we dedicate our resources to offsetting essential household expenses—including rent, utilities, and groceries—for local families in the midst of treatment. Since our founding in 2009, we have proudly distributed over $5.1 million to help more than 1,000 families navigate their most challenging time.
How You Can Help
This mission is fueled entirely by the Kansas City community. We invite you to learn more about our volunteer board, our dedicated sponsors, and the fundraising events that make our work possible. Together, we can take the financial burden off the table so these families can focus on the fight.
