Kai's Warriors Against Childhood Cancer

Kai’s Warriors Against Childhood Cancer (KWACC) was born out of struggle and pain. In May of 2016, almost two year old Kai McAlpin was diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer that showed both leukemia and lymphoma symptoms, with the very rare Gamma Delta DNA Markers. He fought hard for almost a year, then on March 14th of 2017, Kai passed on this fight to us, leaving behind a legacy beyond his almost three years of life. Because of his determination and fight, we continue on today, helping families stricken with childhood cancer, as well as his story being incremental in getting a new law passed to increase funding for childhood cancer. Many families are forced to choose their careers or their children after diagnosis. Many families go bankrupt due to the overwhelming expenses that incur during this lengthy journey, that for many, lasts the rest of the child’s life. Our mission is to provide financial, mental and interfaith spiritual support to families and their children. To date, we have been able to financially help several families with donations of thousands of dollars and we hope to continue raising the number of families and donations to help them offset their extreme expenses that come from caring for a child with cancer.
