KICKCANCER
Mission Statement
At KICKcancER, we’re on a mission to transform the pediatric cancer journey by equipping families with holistic tools that complement treatment, athletic scholarships, and supportive community. We believe true healing happens when we treat the whole child...body, mind, and spirit. Through our core initiatives: the KICKstartER Kits, Athlete Program and Thrive Together Talks...we walk alongside families from diagnosis to survivorship. Whether it's a parent overwhelmed with treatment options or a child rediscovering joy through sport, KICKcancER provides hope, strength, and practical support every step of the way. Based in Solana Beach, CA, KICKcancER proudly supports families nationwide while staying deeply rooted in Southern California, where many of our families receive treatment at local hospitals.
