Leia's Kids

We are a non-profit charity, founded in 2017, whose mission is to provide hope and support to children and their families battling childhood cancer.

Many of us know local children and families that have been affected by childhood cancer. Doctors and nurses work hard to cure patients’ cancers, but families need more than medical help to get them through this difficult time. This is the point at which the Leia’s Kids Foundation intervenes. The foundation provides direct financial assistance to children and their families who are facing the often overwhelming childhood cancer pathway.

The mission of Leia’s Kids is to provide hope and support to children and their families battling childhood cancer. Leia’s Kids does this by directly donating to families battling childhood cancer. 

Leia’s Kids honors each child and their family through a Crown-A-Kid party. This is a time to celebrate and encourage the child and family in the biggest battle of their lives. 

• Each child receives a $1,000.00 donation from the Leia’s Kids Foundation.

• Covers surprise costs such as unexpected travel or childcare. 

• Offer emotional support and connect families together to form a community. We walk with families because we understand what it’s like to have a child with cancer. 

• Leia’s Kids focus on the whole family because cancer affects everyone! (Sometimes fighting cancer comes in the form of doing the dishes or babysitting your younger siblings while mom and dad are at the hospital.)

• We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit charity. All donations are tax write-offs.
