Friends of Kids with Cancer is devoted to enriching the daily lives of children undergoing treatment for, and survivors of, cancer and blood-related diseases. Our mission is to be an advocate for these special kids providing them and their families with the educational, emotional, and recreational support needed as a result of the long hours of chemotherapy, illness and isolation.

Join us for a lively evening featuring over 60 powerful art pieces created by young patients and siblings in our art therapy program. Enjoy a fun, cocktail-style event with an open bar, tasty bites from St. Louis favorites, a photo booth, raffles, gift card pull, and more.
For over 25 years, art therapy has been a core therapeutic program provided by Friends of Kids with Cancer to children diagnosed with cancer or blood-related diseases in St. Louis. Our supporters may recognize the beautiful, fun, and often thoughtful artwork, but may not understand what art therapy is and exactly how it helps kids and families as they move through their cancer journey.
Despite a day full of rain and lightning, over 200 supporters came to Whitmoor golf course to participate in Friends of Kids with Cancer’s Golf Tournament & Auction to raise $485,796 for programs to help children facing cancer in St. Louis.
Over 1,500 participants supported Walk with a Friend by walking or running in honor of or in memory of a loved one with cancer.
A positive mental outlook can be just as important as the medicine used to treat the disease. Friends of Kids with Cancer’s Educational (Think), Emotional (Feel), and Recreational (Smile) programs build self-esteem and provide moments of joy and laughter to the entire family!
The Giving Club is a special group of people devoted to helping children and their families as they fight one of the toughest battles of their lives.
